American engineers leaving the tech entirely because it’s wildly underpaid versus far easier, far less painful work

— And this is despite that tech turned into a trillion dollar industry

Why is it so wildly underpaid?

Not even actually true that US students are falling behind in STEM

Even more surprisingly, not even true that international students are the cause of US students being ahead in STEM

It’s in the genes and always has been

…unless the genes get drastically changed

Demographics is destiny

Vivek really did not think out his argument

Vivek, bro, your role was to be the smart guy

🄳🄾🄾🄼🄿🄾🅂🅃🄸🄽🄶

So his arguments weren’t smart

Let’s see if they at least had some kind of emotional appeal?

Oh

No, no they did not

Asian, Indian tech culture always been about zero-sum memorization of already solved problems,

Extreme obedience to school authorities

Extremely high grades

US tech culture always been about dropping out of school,

Defying authorities and classic credentials,

Creating new things long before any school could have a chance to teach them, because you’re literally inventing whole new fields

Radically different, in the most fundamental ways

US tech, from the start, been about breaking rules, defying authorities, dropping out of school

Commie big tech, the complete opposite

Burn big tech

But then why aren’t the masculine countries exactly dominating, especially entrepreneurially?

Reason is a second critical dimension

= Uncertainty Avoidance, boldness

Latin America, East and Central European countries, as well as Japan = High on uncertainty avoidance, afraid of uncertainty, despite being otherwise masculine

Nordic, and Chinese cultures = Unafraid of uncertainty, despite being otherwise femine

Result?

= It’s a wash, for these countries.

You really need both to thrive entrepreneurially.

Both masculinity & unafraid of uncertainty

Does any country have both, at the population level?

Only US, by overwhelming evidence

Is what it is

Not happening because of the one group in STEM that real merit-based hiring would destroy the most

The one group that is the most untouchable

Non-american mind cannot comprehend

— how little respect the american mind has for big academia, big tech, credentialism

Schools create innovation?

No

Schools, at best, get people to memorize past innovations from decades to centuries ago

Innovation comes from individuals, not schools, not credentialism

Usually by skipping on a ton of homework & schooling, because both innovating and schooling take a ton of time
