I know this is a caste thread, but there might be a more general issue at play here - a mediocre person may not be able to recognize a talented person, a good solution or a good design. Not putting mediocre people on interview panels would

even in this woke era those legal systems can hardly be called civilised though. i mean the punishment for rape is being wed to the victim. also the "forgiveness" there is bought using wealth, kind of like out of court settlement

Yes absolutely. But this is subjective as well is part of my premise. Like some people may be genetically predisposed to not saying no to food etc... in my experience the desire to get revenge is hard to overcome for a fairly large part of

perhaps you haven't been wronged in a significant way, and i hope it stays that way.

While law doesn't have place for revenge in a civilised society and rightly so, the need for revenge/retribution I suspect is quite innate. It's healthy to try to forgive but it's quite difficult, almost like you can

I travelled through the Andes, Amazon rainforest etc... and while it was amazing overall, I wasn't impressed with Machu Pichu. There are way older and better built things all over Asia and Europe.

I don't think the kind of engineers that command 300k in valley are to be had in Amsterdam for 80k. In India that's possible.
