Does it even matter whether you are Black, White, Brown or Pink, Red, Yellow, Green or whatever as far as the person is smart, dedicated and hardworking.
That's true, but it's nice to know who's out there. If you only read TechCrunch, you'd think MCHammer and Chamillionaire are the only black folks to ever touch a computer. Nothing against them, but yeah.
Well yes and no. I just wanted to know if there were people that look like me doing the same things. Similar to a Developer who seeks out devs that code in the same language. No Offense. Sorry it irked you so much
Yes it matters, but not for success. When you're the minority in a field, it feels good when you discover there are others from the same background who have chosen the same path as you and have been successful.

Any particular reason you left Fuchsia out of that list?

I have also seen similar queries in HN (Women,Single,Gay). FYI
I'm so glad you didn't mention purple. Everybody always says purple. I think it has to do with the people eater.
