But if you would like to be taken seriously

I'm not sure this is. And if it really bothers (the collective) you that badly:

  git clone && rm README.md

There is nothing wrong with wanting something to stay just "in".

The relative tone of this thread and its popularity has me convinced that many are willing to change their culture to match random demands regardless of the objective merit of those demands. Hell, without even critically examining the merit of those demands.

"This language is alienating!"

Says who? And why? Why is this a statement to be taken at pure face value by someone who isn't even claiming to be offended?

I find that lack of principled objection to be horridly offensive, but that's just me.

And why? If your word choice means 50+% of the target population has no idea what you mean then it's a poor choice.

If the goal of the author was to do anything other than sprinkle in some inoffensive humor. ("wat", "performance gainnzzzz")

Not everyone gets every joke after all :)
