    Agreed. Most of us really do not think about this shit as often as we should. I know I am guilty of assuming he when typing. I know because I make an effort not to be. And notice how often I need to correct text. Being older than many developers. I just grew up with the assumptions. So like many my age needed my attention drawn to the societal indoctrination.

    People politely pointing it out is important. As is people volunteering to help correct older documentation.

      This is true. I agree that developers should use more inclusive language in their documentation. I mostly just thought people saw the other post already.
