Some words trigger strong negative emotions for many people. For example, anyone with a loved one who died by suicide can be triggered by the word 'suicide'. They can be working productively and happily, see the word 'suicide' in some code, and then spend the rest of the day suffering.

People deserve to work and live without triggering their traumas.

Name changes are cheap to implement. For example, we can use 'shutdown' instead of 'suicide' and help our teammates to be more productive and happy.

So let's just all do the name changes without complaining or judging the people who ask for them. We'll do it because we care about them.

Potential trigger words and suitable alternatives:

- suicide, abort -> exit, crash, stop, halt, shutdown, terminate

- kill -> stop, halt, shutdown, terminate

- infect -> assimilate, convert, install

- master -> main, primary, leader

- slave -> backup, secondary, follower

- blacklist -> denylist, blocklist

- whitelist -> allowlist, passlist

- daemon, demon -> server, worker

- cop -> supervisor, monitor, watchdog

- male -> plug, prong, sender

- female -> jack, socket, receiver

- mate -> connect, link, join

- gender-changer -> adapter, socket-to-socket adapter, plug-to-plug adapter
