Rafael Avila de Espindola, one of the top contributors to the LLVM compiler toolset, has cut ties with the open source project over what he perceives as code of conduct hypocrisy and support for ethnic favoritism. In a message posted to the LLVM mailing list, de Espindola said he was leaving immediately and cited changes in the community.
LLVM project founder, Chris Lattner responded; "I applaud Rafael for standing by his personal principles, this must have been a hard decision." Lattner also insisted that "it is critical to the long term health of the project that we preserve an inclusive community."

Depends on the shit being flung.
I work with a bunch of Indians. From India. Some of them are so happy to have a wage good enough to buy a house. Some are pissed that they don't earn 6 digits. Most of them are not worth the wage. Underperformers the company can't get rid of. People who would be earning 30K in India. Yet they complain. Yet they are still here. They want more. Go back home then. Go to India and see what you get there.
They don't. They stay here. Enjoying the shorter hours. The higher wage. The inane protection their brown skin gives them.
Want to earn more? Start your own company. Build it up yourself. Pay your own wage. Join us. Do what the white people did. It's hard work but worth it.
Stay and complain or leave. Simple choice really.
