This podcast talks about this. Casteism is a disgusting remanent of Hinduism — the least someone can do is be AWARE of their privilege and ensure that they are inclusive and fair to their fellow citizens regardless of caste or race.

However, as I said; if you’re not into firmware and/or just getting started, this makes a great prototyping language.
