when you pass a black dude in the street do you stop to remind him that hes black

they werent writing the article to inform him. So pointing out to the guy directly isnt a good analogy.

a necessary piece of information (his race)?
no.

racist?
no.

his race has as much to do with the story as does his hairstyle or which way his penis curves.

unessecary descriptive term =/= racism unless its specifically used in a deragoatory and insulting manner.

which it wasnt here it was meant to inform about a developer.

this is the same as if you saw a black guy walking down the street drinking a double expresso then you turn to your friend and say?

that black guy I just saw drinking an expresso made me want one. Lets go get one anyplace except Starbucks because Starbucks is terrible and tastes like fecal matter.
