It would be prudent to include some data to substantiate your insinuation that some non white non European programmers did the Boeing MCAS code. The 9$ per hour wage maybe less than that of a burger flipper in the USA, but the cost of living is vastly different.Being an engineer , if you are ignoring this significant parameter then we definitely know one source of the issue .Maybe you are not an engineer but a fine arts major who “learned” coding by yourself.

Boeing asserted that no "critical flight software" was outsourced, but it specifically didn't label the MCAS as "critical flight software" when describing it to the FAA.
What we know was outsourced is "flight test software" which sounds a lot like something that should have caught the 737 MAX failure...
