Just a tendency to either be very timid, or very outgoing and really no in between. It just feels obviously it's a cultural difference that frankly I don't understand. I've always appreciated competence and rejected unsubstantiated arrogance. So to me it's kind of alien. I haven't seen the interactions as described in the article, but have noticed things like lunch group clustering that seemed to go beyond a typical US High School. And it wasn't really a grouping by type of work. I was working in a position that was a very large company group that was around 75% Indian H1Bs. I never really knew how the caste system worked, but in retrospect it makes a lot of sense. At the time I just chalked it up to a culture thing.
