In slav languages, you just go with how the neologism sounds. "Computer" ends in hard r, so it's masculine, for example.

Every once in a while there's going to be shit like with "coffee" though. It sounds neutral-gendered and is officially neutral-gendered, but there's been a big period when people believed it should be masculine because of the source language or some shit. Still a lot of people arguing about it.
