he has a github page here WizTheEngineer - Overview
I looked at the follower list and saw another IT breh who works for Github

Its a shame you gotta be into stuff most Asians are into to be even remotely a fit for the culture
Asians don't really like anime from what I've seen.
It's mostly white dudes.. more specifically nerd brehs.
Real anime avid watchers is such a small subset.
First breh you posted still has bass in his voice and he talks like a brother.

I can't actually believe companies will tell interviewees to their face that they weren't hired because they aren't a cultural fit.. how can you even get that in one interview?
Whoever came up with that.. that is completely stupid. Isn't a cultural fit one who stands by and aligns themselves with the corporations goals, mission statement, etc?

Sheesh jumping from the frying pan into the fire IMO. Lot of non-profits are just as bad as corporations are, but mask it under the guise of community. I hope it works out for you.
I was speaking on a few black-owned non profits that I know of in my city.
backed with which money, allowed to not make profit for how long, and given positive media spin? Where?
Do yall realize how much institutional leeway some of these tech companies get?
The worst advice you can give to black employees is to "be yourself" at work.
