The best solution in this article seems quite convoluted and not very portable. Is there a better way? Edit: I doubt it’s uniform as well because rows at the edges are less likely to be selected.

Me as well, if I understand this too 5 list per country lots of Dutch companies are hiring from Kenya. I’ve been to meetups, I’m on LinkedIn and I’ve never seen anyone from Kenya. I’ve seen a lot of people from all over Europe and India.
