Wow. I never thought I'd see a question like this posted to anyone but myself.

indians have just launched a chandrayaan, mission to moon. please dont underestimate indians. they are hardworking people. they are doing all by their own. it's just they have just started waking up. i think after 30 years they will be on par with all of you in communication etc.
Perhaps. Will they know how to use google in that time ? Seriously, I am sure there are competent indians. I know plenty. And I'm sure they can get to the moon. That's because they won't do it by advertising the work on rentacoder, and their programmers won't be on CP asking how to send email, and how to convert a string into a number.

well these frsher indian programmers,, (including myself) look at you guys real professionals and look up to you , we probably do not know ho to go all about in forums etc.. but you guys just go on insulting us, why? you are in your shells,, that's why all the conflicts in the world are happening. you are not aware of third world counties, their sentiments.
Too Soapy. But to blame Programmers for all the World's conflicts is a bit much. Personally I blame it on Religion and Stupidity. Those too stupid to get on in the real world and understand how things work turn to religion. Religion highlights differences and breeds intolerance, THAT is why there is conflict. Programmers generally don't start wars. Also, You really could do with learning to start sentences with a majuscule.

you a...hole, you are indian but laughing at them, you have sold youself. because of people like you why british ruled us for so many years. you southie.
And you are racist, for making remarks like that.

Part of the problem is that postings such as this contain so many grammatical errors and this puts doubt into the reader's mind. Foolish questions being asked by people purporting to be professional programmers have a very detrimental effect on the perception of Indian programmers. To get a different explanation maybe you could ask John Simmons / Outlaw Programmer the same question.
I still remember having to write your own code in FORTRAN rather than be a cut and paste merchant being pampered by colour coded Intellisense - ahh proper programming - those were the days :)
I don't know about CG, but my list follows: 0) Generally speaking, the Indians "programmers" that post here are lazy. When they post a question in the programming forum, more often than not, they haven't tried writing the code, and would prefer that someone else just provide it for them. 1) Generally speaking, their questions are posted in the form of a demand for code, rather than a request for help. 2) Generally speaking, articles posted by Indian "programmers" simply suck. The formatting is poor (or non-existent), the content is sparse (or non-existent), and their command of the English language is laughable. 3) Generally speaking, they think everyone here is their friend by default. How wrong they are, and this is mostly due to those that came before them. 4) Generally speaking, the new Indian "programmers" here assume there is hate involved in responses to their requests demands for help. That's not the case. It's merely a high level of frustration with having to hear from yet another clueless retard. 5) Outsourcing has really soured a lot of European and American programmers toward their Indian counterparts. I fail to see why Indian "programmers" don't recognize this and feel compelled to call it hate or racism. 6) Indians work for considerably less money because they can, and this dilutes the profession's generally high level of pay that we've worked so hard to develop (and enhances the outsourcing problem).

Hey kmeena. Let me be clear. I make no distinction about any person that is based purely on race. I don't think all Indians are good or bad, or that all Australians are smart or stupid. That is racism. I certainly have known and worked with a number of excellent indian developers, most notably Nish ( we both worked for code project at the same time some years ago ). There are many other CPians who are Indian, and whom I respect greatly. Their race doesn't even enter into my thinking. On the other hand, I have worked with a number of indian outsourcing firms, something that I did because I was placed in a position where it was part of my job. We outsourced, I liased with Indian teams, and I supervised their work. Without fail, every single time, the work was not done, it was badly done, it was not done in accordance with my instructions, I lost weekend trying to meet deadlines based on shoddy or non existant work, etc. My comments are entirely based on my belief that the west has been blindly throwing money at India, expecting to magically get back great code for next to nothing. I don't blame the indians for taking the opportunity, but it does appear to me that unless you have the ability to interview people in india, and have a physical presence there, anyone who, for example, advertised on rentacoder and expects a system written for them, is going to be very disappointed. I am a programmer and I was managing the situation, that's why our projects got done. I invariably did them. I can't imagine what a disaster it would be for a non programmer to try to get work out of an indian company. If you're a programmer in India ( and I assume you are ) I would not assume to judge your abilities on that basis, I don't know you. I would assume based on my experience that if you asked me to pass you some outsourced work, that it would not be worth the risk for me to do that, entirely based on 100% negative experiences in the past. Those are two different things. I am not trying to say all indian programmers suck, I certainly have friends I would be insulting if I said that. I am merely stating that in my experience, outsourcing does not work.

Thanks Christian, I just wanted to know your view point. I respect it. Just getting to know the sincere feedback will allow us to think for ourselves , how we should improve. Just getting insults hurled at us will confuse us. I know , we need improvements in many areas. Most of the the families are just coming us and entering into corporate world. They have less idea of the the corporate ethics, communcation, business practices. but we are tryting to learn . We can not alienate ourselves and want to deal with the world. But some posts in the lounge just made me think very inferior, so put this post here. Here lot of people have insulted me without knowing my genuine feeling and what I felt. anyway Thanks. I can start myown on my english, also in someways i can put forward these ideas to my friends, some of them just in colleges.. regards, kMeena.

Well, you have to remember that a lot of people have lost jobs to outsourcing, which makes them feel more personally about it. I wasn't trying to take a shot at any specific person, just comment on my own experiences. And I feel honoured to once again have a thread named after me :-)

No, The British Ruled you for so many years because of all your in-fighting and internecine politics. Once you actually combined and started making it work , we left. ALthough we left a lot behind. Language, Government, Civil Service, Transport, You can walk the streets at night, Education, The Wine, don't forget the wine, and apart from that , What did the Romans British ever do for you!

hi christian some posts by you suggests you dont like indian companies. may be indian programmers. can you give more feedback . is it is, why is that so? is it the hidden dislike for indians altogether.. or just indian companies. or are there more things you hate i felt hurt so i am writing you. regards kmeena
Example of problem, and where the frustration comes from: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/View.aspx?fid=12076&msg=2787805[^] There are so many questions, along the lines of "I have a problem, please help", without ever really giving enough information to define the problem... It gets a bit annoying after a while.

you seem to be qbasic programmer till now.
First, you still haven't mastered English, and seem to think staring a sentence with a minuscule is correct. Second, the word is until. Third, yes, I programmed in QBasic many years ago, now it is VB, VBA and C#. Fourthly, Insults are the sign of a losing argument. Come up with something pertinant and relevent and maybe I will treat it with respect. Otherwise, F@#& off and grow up. You seem to be very racist, you think all the British are evil corrupt thieves. Racism on this site will not be tolerated, so either put up or shut up, but either way, do not make any further racist comments.

Show me any post where I have insulted somebody based on their race. I abhor racism. However, you can find lots of posts where I have a go at people who are being lazy or are plainly unable to do the job they are being paid for. As an employer, I couldn't care less what nationality a person was; I do care about whether somebody can code or not (and if not, whether they show the aptitude to learn). Everybody starts off with by learning - I don't have a problem with that, and when people show they are willing to learn then I am willing to help. When they want spoonfeeding, then I have no interest in helping them - they are beyond help, and should seek employment in a field they are better suited to. I am no brainsurgeon, and I wouldn't expect to be employed as such, so I have no sympathy for people who aren't suited to being developers continuing to be employed in a position where they keep somebody who is better able, out of a job.

I'm sorry, but I don't buy this argument. Incompetence is incompetence - regardless of whereever it is based, and I couldn't give a flying firkin where it originates. I accept lack of education as an excuse, but not lack of natural ability. Education can be fixed - ability cannot.
