> In one example cited in the lawsuit, the Labor Department says Palantir hired 14 non-Asian applicants and 11 Asian applicants from a pool of more than 1,160 qualified people, 85% of whom were Asian. The likelihood of that happening from chance is one in 3.4 million, according to the lawsuit.

Wow. What position were they applying for? I wonder how their application and selection process works.

1,160 qualified people? How do the Labor Department define qualified? Did Palantir interview all of them?
If they hired 85% of Asian people, wouldn't they be sued for racial discrimination and favoring Asian people?

oh right, you can't discriminate against white people.
