Opinion: Are red-haired DBAs unwilling to learn?
I’ve seen a lot of discussion lately about diversity and inclusion, and rightly so. It’s incredibly important. But there are two points that I want to draw attention to. The first is that language matters. And the second is that we shouldn’t be generalizing about people, based upon either their physical characteristics, or their race, religion, sexual preferences, etc.
Language that singles out people based on these things is regularly called out. But one that’s often missed is age.
