Change default gender in the dining philosophers project
The paper from which this example was taken made the mistake of assuming
that all five philosophers are men. This is a hypothetical
example--there are no actual philosophers eating spaghetti--so there is
no good reason to make this assumption. Since women make up about half
of the human population, all things being equal, women should represent
about half of the philosophers. However, because this mistake has stood
since 1985, I have changed *all* of the pronouns to be female, to make
up for lost time. If someone would like to revert this patch or switch
to neutral pronouns after 30 years, feel free to set your alarm clock
for 2045.
