This feels a bit like apples and oranges.
Babel's primary purpose is transpiling to run on older browsers, which
isn't that much of an issue with Python. It's also complicated a bit by the
large number of implementations that *must* be developed in sync, again due
to running in user's browsers.

According to Chambers online, a slur is "a disparaging remark intended

Kinda OT, but I believe the connotation is that slur is use of the word,
whereas an insult is use directed at someone.
For instance, if someone is having a conversation where they use the
n-word, it's a racial slur. If they directly call someone that, it's an
insult.

You'd have to ask Guido directly, but I don't think so. It wasn't the
volume, but the nature and timing of the discussion that was so difficult.

Hi,
For the record I was surprised to see the word "slur" pop up
quite often recently, while I'd only heard "insult" before. I
looked it up and it doesn't help that the French translation seems to
be the same in both cases (it's "insulte").
Then I came upon this thread where someone pretty
The main clause differentiating bad, weaponizable CoCs from good ones is
"Assume good faith"
Everything will be OK if good faith can reasonably be assumed (E.g. when
someone uses a word which is only offensive based on context)
On the other hand, e.g. obvious racial slurs never have a place on a

First, JS has an easy and widely supported way to modify the language for
