The phrases “master” and “slave” code or drive are used in some programming languages and computer hardware to describe one part of a device or process that controls another.
Floyd’s death has sparked a re-examination of words that might carry racial overtones. For example, some realtors are no longer using the term “master bedroom,” and Universal Music Group’s Republic Records stopped using the word “urban” to describe music genres and internal departments or roles. Columbia Business School programming professor Mattan Griffel said such terms have long been controversial and can be difficult to change.
The technology that underpins bank operations is often a spaghetti-like mess that results from merged companies, decades-old code and third-party systems, and any change can have cascading effects that are difficult to predict, Griffel said.
Hahaha
Have they ever used a dictionary? Homonyms? The ignorant are winning unfortunately.
What a BS to deny responsibilities
How about “service fees”
Evidence that God is very Mighty.
“words that carry racial overtones from the bank's programming code”.
Signalling their virtue so that they can carry on milking the masses.
What about the raping of America....do why have any news on that front?!? Or, are we just asking too much? Have a Nice Evening. JPMorgan JamieDimon
The Power of The Blood of JESUS - hard evidence
In the black, in the red come to mind. But it could be a very dangerous minefield. You know, where things blow up! Boom!
Next thing will be male and female for wiring. It will be they/them.
Great, racism solved
It still won't change the way we feel about each other.
Wait! What Who the fuck uses those “terms” up in business omfg we gotta LLLLLLLLLOOOOOOONNNNNGGGGGG way to go
What about whiteboards, whitelisting, white papers, brown bags, red herrings, Apache software, black coffee, white milk, bright white copy paper, black binders, etc? Once you start...you never finish. Good luck!
Yet they fought over who would be called it
What will they think of next ?
Yet House majority WHIP is alright!! Lol! walkaway GODWINS
This is dumb. Now this opens a can of worms for other Non- racist terms....what about Blacksmith? Or MastersDegree, or MasterCard?
This has nothing to do with racism, and is genuinely ridiculous that it can ever be considered as such. They have these names because of their function within the system, not as an intentional reference to black people. They have invented racism in order to remove racism.
Он намахал
no one cares about this kind of shit. all this is going to do is break peoples' code.
Hold on; all the main ERP software will fail without the master data.
How mindbogglingly stupid of you
But I know many racist employee there
Can it address racist loan and financial policies?
But they still speculate and manipulate markets putting millions people in poverty
Pretty soon you won’t be able to say black or white at all without it being linked to racism what if I want some black paint do I have to say ebony now.
HR departments been busy then...........
Very silly.
Why don't they also remove 'Chase' from their name - invokes images of white cops chasing black people?
Imagine being so dumb to be triggered by widely used technology terms that they don’t even understand
With all due respect, the day will come when the name of the America will have to be removed because it comes with the last name of the “conqueror” Américo Vespucio.
Just stupid!
Never liked Chase anyway. They doing everything but approving black people for loans.
Break open that pocketbook and repay some of the billions you made off the slave trade and we’ll call it even jpmorgan
Haha
When are they going to publish a white paper on it?
Okay ... and now let’s work towards defunding the police
So brave of a bank to change its terminology to show support for anti racism. Banks have such a long history of anti racism that they just need to make symbolic changes in terminology. Deep introspection like this should not go unheralded.
BUT.. ‘blacklist,’ ‘master,’ and ‘slave’ are common terms used in the IT sector, and each one describes attributes of software/hardware. anyone else equate this 'radical left-ish' nonsense to what the chinese government is doing to the muslims living in china. (genocide).
If you're too politically correct you'll wipe out half of IT's vocabulary. I suppose the client/server relationship is on the chopping block too..
Stupidity has no boundaries
If there's one thing I've learned from this, NO ONE CARES.
The will not work with companies who are in the black.
JP Morgan literally benefited from, owned and traded slaves 200 years ago, so if you’re trying to be politically correct, u need to go way beyond this 😘
I guess that's a start. Slave Anyway, why not consider adjusting recruitment strategies and investments in regional educational systems to increase qualified candidates of 'color'as well as women that you can promote within your company?
Y q hay de la lista blanca, los números en negro, serán ahora en azul?, la verdad q el covid hace estupida a las perdonas
NOT very clever. Someone will expose the code for whatever is wrong at JP MORGAN CHASE we already know that you people are RACIST.
Hehehe 😷
modernslavery JPMorgue
Racism is no more.
Quick question - why and where would have they used the term ‘slave’ in any recent internal materials? Seriously $JPM
For Christ Sake.
Mastercard is so screwed.
oh really? so when cosmetic industries are trying to stop making whitening creams? as its racism.
It’s all so puerile.
Finally. That'll solve all our problems.
Ok. Then all issues are solved. Please stop this Ignorance. I know I'm not a slave to anarchists. Don't care if I'm blacklisted
Oh how companies love to cave on the symbolism immediately. It's so much cheaper than actually doing something.
shouldnt they start with SPOOFING
Pure demagoguery.
Cool. Defund the police.
I'd rather they ignore jacking up loan rates or outright denying loans to minority borrowers.... but ... whatevs.
Not good
al_morris__
wow that's might progressive of them, what changes will the next 100 years bring?
Is boss and subordinate somehow better? These are computer parts not people. GetALife
Это тот шо с Мексики который?
Does JPMorgan replace the “slave” term in their tech code with “intern”?
Racism defeated
The television industry still has a lot of that too.
I wonder if mastercard will do anything? They are much more than just a 'card' company now in this digital age, and 'master' is male/owner which doesn't sit so well. But kind of tricky with such a well known brand.
I'm embarrassed to say that I never thought of the connotation. Master and slave cylinders? Master and slave switches? Why not Primary and secondary instead? terminology DemeaningTerminology
Don't they like porn? :-)
Unless you are a racist to begin with.... ...the terms 'master' and 'slave', when used in reference to computer hard drives in an array and electronics in general should not be a problem. To 'go there' means you are WAY, WAY too paranoid.
How white of them
No
Were the codes and materials granted freedom ?
Tristezza...
Should I rename my Master Bedroom and my Slave Bedroom?
So the circuit boards can now enjoy equality..
