rolls eyes. You provide a bunch of anecdotal evidence about a country of 1 billion people and then ask people for inputs. I lived there for eight years; there are smart people and there are stupid people. The bell curve applies to every fucking demographic in the planet. Guess what? When you nickel and dime, you tend to get cheap labor and cheap labor sucks ass. This applies to call centers too. So instead of complaining about the race/ethnicity of the developer, maybe the complaint should go up to higher management.
To give you an analogy: This is like deciding to buy a shoddy car because you are cheap and then complaining that the neighbor's porsche outstrips you every time you take it to the drag race.
- vezzy-fnord 13y agoTrue, but I still believe my observation about their computer security scene is valid. Like I said, a few simple search queries will yield lots of results.
- eshvk 13y agoTrue, but I still believe my observation about $x is valid. Like I said, a few simple search queries will yield lots of results. Where $x can be an element of the following set: { America is a gun crazy violent nation where the streets are filled with people roaming with guns taking shots at minorities. , Abortion is murder, A woman's right to choose is important. } Pick your favorite bias. You will find "simple search queries" that will yield lots of results.
- vezzy-fnord 13y agoAll things considered, the charlatans receive disproportionately high results and representation. Never did I imply there aren't competent Indians in IT, but they do not receive as much spotlight. Second, your insistence on me generalizing about "1 billion people" is erroneous. The ones high enough in the caste system and with sufficient income to pursue such endeavors (and then the ones actually pursuing them) are much lower. India's demographics are well known for being highly mixed when it comes to social status and involving lots of polar extremes. Finally, your example biases are radical in comparison to the view that I point out. Ultimately, there is an issue. Don't try to take this as the ravings of some biased madman.
