Happy Anniversary! For those looking to use this, the following may help a little: find /path/to/folder -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i 's/Ram/YourName/g' find /path/to/folder -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i 's/Antara/OtherHalfsName/g' Edit: FianceeName -> OtherHalfsName (some people are easily offended) :P

Are women banned on HN now? I think I missed that ToS change.

Reverse it ...

You’re misinterpreting it. After the gender neutral pronoun discussion yesterday, everything is now genderless.

There's no gender specific wording anywhere on the open sourced website, or in the parent post, so the parent's regex works regardless of who's doing the regexing.

I think they mean the word "Fiancee" which refers to a woman that is engaged to be married.

If this does not show up dead, then I think you can assume the answer is "no."

You don’t need to be so snarky and sneering at someone just trying to help others when they make a mistake. Try to say things constructively instead.

The regex said "fiancéename", implying the person doing the regexing is a male with a female fiancée. It works for lesbian couples though

I still find the idea of a digital wedding invitation pretty strange, because here in Hungary the bride and the fiancé invite everybody in person together. Maybe distant relatives are invited by mail or something. Is digital invitation a common thing nowadays? Or was it more common even years ago in other countries?

Oh, are heterosexual marriages the only ones allowed on HN now? /s

Seriously, this type of outrage over a minor wording change is really not necessary.

I don't know anyone who uses fiancee in a gendered way; all my engaged friends refer to their future husband/wife as their fiancee (though, granted, I'm probably not as old as many here who are already wed so I might just be out of the loop). Google's definition of fiancee seems to offer both wife-to-be and husband-to-be as synonyms as well, so I'm not really sure the parent's sneer is really valid in this case.
