Sex and Gender is a sticky topic these days.
I was informed in a couple emails that LGBTQ might be more offended by being included using the deprecated method, than they would have been by being left out entirely.
So... new method!
Instead of using a Geek Code category here, pronouns become the category! Deprecated method left in the code for backwards compatibility. This simplified the example block considerably!!
Frontend / Backend merged into Input / Output
- Let me know if I got the ins and the outs in the correct spot.
TV shows alphabetized and organized
Bugfix: Books shares B with Beard
- Books relabeled to BK
Relationships, Sex, and Gender all merged into one category. No need to define sex and lack of sex twice.
Bug: Computers and Clothing share the same letter
- Fixed: CM = Computers
Welcome back to the Geek Code, Microsoft!
- You have given too many geeks headaches for us to ignore you any longer
Had to revamp this because I that old code made me think of other things...
- bb is a droid on Star Wars
- bm is bowel movement
- bs is... well, you get the idea.
New expression for b allows for multiple areas to be defined for hair growth
Updating towards v5
- New introduction with more older geek code examples than even Wikipedia bothers to include.
- Backed up geek code examples to GitHub so that they won't disappear along with old web pages.
- Tried to summarize the major changes between each version concisely
Update Changelog
- "The Geek Code" should be in the "Removed" list.
- In version 3.15, there was a code for The Geek Code to indicate if someone had made suggestions for future versions of geek code. This code is no longer used as of version 4.x
- Suggestions for future additions to geek code are welcome!! It is just no longer a coded part of the geek code.
