It was the force of nature that turned my life on the right path.
It was the best decision I ever made
This wouldn’t have been possible without Austen.
I believe in the system and I believe Norwegian state will do the right thing
Case in point - look at the tech platform docs for NAVs tech teams - https://nais.io/
Y'all in US haven't seen a political turmoil. Rest of the world has and we all are just pattern matching.
it's funny because you think it happened because tim berners lee and CERN. I think, it happened because arpanet and universities connecting with each other.
Internet wasn't an organised effort. it was a bottoms up manifestation. Do i need to remind you what CERN was actually supposed to do?
It's hard to find things like olive oil anywhere except for Jio app. Atleast I am thankful for that.
> It's possible that you were misled by the word 'solely'
Yeah, I don't think I fully understand the premise.
> Do you see how that could come across as dismissive?
I can see that but it's really hard to convey something contrary to popular belief.
Let's say I want to say something like "it's easy to be a victim rather than to take action and make change" I truly believe that and I really think it will help people to take actions rather than just being stagnant. I don't want to be dismissive. How can I say it?
> better is to ask clarifying questions rather than making objections
I somewhat agree. But, it's hard to discuss without counter arguments.
Hey dang,
I am curious. what could I have done better?
if OP said he is suffering "solely" because of his colour and I think, its borderline impossible to pin point a result of large complex system on any one thing?
P.S. - do people flag my comments or did you just see it on your own.
How come Indians succeed in tech? Why do we have so many Indians in tech?
if it's just the skin colour. Why do Indians in tech rise to the top.
P.S. - Before you try to cancel me - I am not trying to start a flame war. I am curious about your explanation.
"solely". It's easy to pin point a problem on others.

barrin92 meet Charles koch.
What slaves? That was a century ago.
okay. how can you measure social welfare?
> seems like a pretty extreme position to just say that money and pricing is the only tool in the toolbox.
I never said that. You said it. You countered it.
Greed and selfish pursuit leads to wealth creation
In guidelines it says "have something genuinely new to say. Avoid unrelated controversies and generic tangents"
tbh, I am really curious about the situation.
Why do Indian-Americans have a disproportionate numbers of High paying jobs i.e founders, CEO, CTO etc?
Why do indian-americans have a median salary of 120k?
What are they doing right?
I could have framed it in a better way but the question still stands.
Thanks!
I really doubt that it's the norm.
Look at the numbers not the anecdotes.
There are disproportionate number of Indian CEOs. It would have been impossible with racism and what not.
