More developers that answer surveys on Stackoverflow. This skews very strongly away from non-native english speakers.

The participation of Chinese, Japanese, Russians and Latin Americans on this survey is just ridiculous. You can see also a clear web & mobile bias on the survey page:

In fairness, the programming world as a whole has a bias against people without strong English abilities.
