Twitter is dropping the terms "master," "slave" and "blacklist" from its code after two engineers lobbied for the use of more inclusive programming language. "Master" and "slave" refer to one process in the code that controls another, while "blacklist" describes a list of items that are automatically blocked, such as forbidden IP addresses. At Twitter, "master" and "slave" will become "leader" and "follower" or "primary" and "replica," while "blacklist" will become "denylist." JPMorgan Chase will also remove "master," "slave," and "blacklist" from its internal materials and code. "I've been used to seeing the word 'slave' throughout my [computer science] education but this was different."
