gollark: Yes, because they have been (are? not sure) lagging behind with modern technological things, and so need(ed?) to use English-programmed English-documented things.
gollark: Which means piles of technical docs are in English, *programs* are in English, people working on technological things are using English a lot...It probably helps a bit that English is easy to type and ASCII text can be handled by basically any system around.
gollark: I don't think it was decided on for any sort of sane reason. English-speaking countries just dominated in technology.
gollark: It's probably quite a significant factor in pushing English adoption.
gollark: Indeed; most programming stuff is still mostly English.
