A project called "Remove-DEI" shows the tweaks used to remove "forbidden words" from a database about childhood school readiness.

The updates, shown in Github commits, are to a database for the Department of Health and Human Services’ Head Start program. They show a project called “Remove-DEI,” which reveal some of the back-and-forth that is happening behind the scenes to align federal agencies with Donald Trump’s executive orders that forbid almost anything having to do with race or gender within federal agencies. The Github pages show software engineers discussing amongst themselves how to best remove all instances of “forbidden words” from a specific database, and the code updates they used to do it. The changes also show that, while thousands of government datasets are disappearing from the internet, even ones that remain are having parts of their utility deprecated or broken in a way that may not be visible to those outside the government.

Because their CEO praises Trump?

I know you didn't say that I just wanted to point that out!

As an American, honestly just avoid those brands in general. Not because they're American made, but many of them are already shit to begin with. Maybe it's shrinkflation, or all the wacky chemicals, or the way they treat their workers.

So take this opportunity not only to be patriotic to your Canadian country, but to also improve your own standard of living and buying better quality foods.

"backlash"

Trump was doing crazy shit like this all during his first term.

And no punishments. The backlash is crossing arms and pouting.

On the server instance level, or the user application level?

On the server instance level, I can see if being an issue if it extends to other redirects, and lead to malicious abuse by the instance.

On the user application level, would be valuable. I use Lemmy Sync and it'll be a nice feature to suggest.
