According to the Encyclopedia of Parallel Computing (mentioned in one of the sibling sub-comments of my original comment), you and I are both wrong in what we consider a "race condition". Of course, whether or not the source is an authority on the subject when the popular usage of the word refers to a different concept is questionable, but there's at least a possibility that we're both wrong.
Regardless, that's still one more reason not to be unpleasant to people when correcting them - you might just find yourself in the wrong.

If you want pleasant learning on the Internet, don't "learn by teaching" through blogs that mislead other learners, even if only in terminology use.
People will tear that apart.
