That would be a good explanation if people from other cultures couldn't program worth a damn, but they clearly can.

- jbob2000 8y agoYes, they can still program, but not as good as the US (clearly). I didn't say that culture was the defining factor of being able to program or not, just that it could be the factor for what puts the US on top of other countries.
- ionised 8y agoI don't think it's a question of skill. The US has more big tech companies because of its approach to business and regulation (if that's what you mean by culture), not the raw skill of its US-born workers. I mean, look at the leadership of a lot of these companies. They're foreign-born, typically from Asia.
