Isn’t Saitama immune to her powers?

Pretty sure that is ALSO endangering other people

Fuck endangering other people

Yeah, I’ve heard “boss” used in prison movies and such, but I’ve also heard it in places of employment (even when the person isn’t the supervisor or boss), between customer and service worker (both directions), with strangers (“Watch your step there, boss, there’s a sudden drop”). Never saw anyone offended by it in my own experience, so it’s news to me (and good to know) that there could be groups out there that are offended by it.

Was not aware of that! I’m assuming it is a South/West thing? Never encountered that in the North East

Why they changed it, I can’t say

I would recommend asking the person what they prefer, for people you know ahead of time are non-binary. For people you don’t know ahead of time, choose whichever you think is most likely, apologize if you get it wrong, and ask them afterwards what they prefer.

Unless it is adopted widely by society, any third option will likely be met with confusion, and will still likely offend some people.

For a suggestion of a third option, however, might I offer “boss”? Slightly more formal than chief (in my experience), gender neutral, and allows you to make it as playful or respectful as the situation needs.

It is a net, and it is tiny!

Damnit, you’re right!

But for real, I think you misunderstand the point of documentation. Even if something were truly, literally flawless, having documentation would still be a net gain. It isn’t only to fix something when it goes wrong, but explains how things are working. If the only way for something to be literally flawless in your world view is for it to be so self explanatory that an idiot seeing it for the first time still understands it perfectly, nothing in computing can be flawless in that way.

The pedantry on this point is so unhelpful as to be actively harmful to the rest of the discussion.

They didn’t say it required documentation, they said it had plenty of documentation should you need it.
