I had a Pycharm linter with "inconsiderate writing list" flag my use of "bi" as inappropriate, recommending to use "bisexual" instead. In my data job, BI, means business intelligence, it's everywhere.

I now identify as a Power Bisexual.

"I'm a power bisexual 365."

That works.

How is that inconsiderate? That's just informal

(Using "bi" to mean "bisexual", I mean, not "business intelligence" lol)

No, it's right.

Business intelligence is inconsiderate and must be stopped!

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago

Fully agreed! And while we're at it, get rid of Power Pivot!

I think it's probably because it is informal or maybe ambiguous.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 2 days ago

I'm confused how bi is inappropriate

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Huh, I’ve only heard business logic before.

Business intelligence is in the context of analytics. It means something very different from "business logic", in case you're thinking they're synonyms...
