I just want Firefox for Android to work better and whoever is qualified to make this happen regardless of the colour of their face, I don't care; neither do the users care either.
Maybe it's only the racists that care so much about the colour of someone's face is on the team.
Its ever so easy to dismiss bias when we have an emotional connection. It's worth being careful about, noticing and even sometimes bringing up. And not helpful to get trolled and mocked for bringing it up.
Is this picture really disproportion in makeup? Lets see, 40 people, black faces make up 14% of America. What's the probability that's by chance? Its about 1 in 1000.
But lets be real. Black engineers are rare, much less than 14%. From ^this site its about 6%. That comes out to maybe a 1 in 12 chance of happening by accident.
So who knows. Maybe Mozilla is that 1 in 12.
Now is this the fault of mozilla? Hardly.
But are they supposed to hire people because of their race and not of their skills? That would be the definition of racism, no?
My comment is an attempt to frame exactly that discussion. The chances, in America, of the Mozilla result is 1 in 12. Please inform us all if there is better evidence, that Mozilla's result is more likely for some reason.
You're either trolling or completely delusional.

It's not helpful to bring agenda when it is not there.

Because population of America consists only of Software Engineers and there's for sure no immigrants in this picture.
