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.

Power top or bottom?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

365

"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] 12 points 2 weeks ago

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

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

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 weeks ago

I'm confused how bi is inappropriate

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

Huh, I’ve only heard business logic before.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 weeks ago

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