minus-squareentropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up0·5 months agoIDK either but I’m guessing it’s a play on “soyboy”, so basically just calling the devs that engage in this behavior wusses and losers.
minus-squareGroteStreet 🦘@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoI hate how soy has been used by bigots as an insult. Soy products are bloody delicious!
minus-squareentropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up0·5 months agoAgreed, it’s stupid as an insult.
minus-squarepkill@programming.devOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·5 months agoI agree and am aware of the connotations of such terms, didn’t really mean to get associated with bigots like this.
minus-squareDreadPotato@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·5 months agoI thought it was a racist slur for Asian devs…never heard the term soyboy before, but would have assumed racist slur as well.
minus-squarepkill@programming.devOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·5 months agonever seen it used in such context
minus-squareDreadPotato@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·edit-25 months agoI mean like i said, I have never even seen it used before, in any context, so this is only my initial impression of the name. You use “soy” as a negative appendix to something, soy is Asian in origin (I think?), which is why I perceived it initially as a racist slur.
minus-squarepkill@programming.devOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·5 months agonah, it’s more related to the soyjak meme, ie consumerist, yet smarter than thou npc
minus-squarebobs_monkey@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·edit-25 months agoI like it, makes sense lol I’m imagining devs that use MS word as revision control.
