Meme “the number of people who think this is an abomination” over a photo of a USB-A to USB-A cable, “but think this is perfectly acceptable” over a photo of a USB-C to USB-C cable, “makes me sick.”

master/slave could be primary/secondary, primary/subordinate or principle/agent, so you’re correct on that replacement.

I personally am a big fan of “Mantrap” becoming an “Access Control Vestibule” mostly because it’s fun to say.

I like controller/peripheral, which is the most descriptive in my opinion. That’s what’s commonly used for SPI.

I’ve been using parent/child, I guess that’s not always correct?
