So Elon Musk posted some photos of a recent “code review” at Twitter. One photo in particular has some people upset… because the people who are there doing actual work seem to be… well, take a look:

 

 

 

 

If you read the Twitter comments, you’ll see that some people are upset that there aren’t enough women coders or black coders. Well… I don’t know how many were there before Musk took over, but the people who were fired were generally fired en masse; those who quit did so on their own; those who remained did so for reasons of their own. So it *appears* that “diverse” coders either weren’t there to begin with, or didn’t want to stay and work extra hard. Granted, some number of those remaining are foreigners on work visas… if they quit, they get sent back across the seas. So they are, arguably, stuck. Stuck in a country that all the harpies keep screaming is racist and horrible. So a chance for a free flight back to the homeland is something that they *should* be clamoring for, yes?
