People are downvoting this, but the difference in cultures is real (though I wouldn't say it is confined to anglos). But udev might be exposing a case where the "anglo" culture has a genuine advantage. Engineers really should communicate clearly about technical stuff. People solving complex problems really should concepualise their approaches clearly, ideally so that can be expressed in words. People really should reach out for help when blocked. And if Anglos find it easier to do those things, then good on 'em.
