[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ramaswamy's vision of raising children revolves around math cram schools, no sleepovers, no cartoons. Instead of doing sports kids are supposed to go to science competitions and study more math.

Let's see how having a no sports culture is doing for India. There were 89 countries in the Paris Olympics who won medals. India had the fewest medals per capita of all those 89 countries. They only managed to win 6 medals (and not even one gold medal) with a population of over a billion people. That is one measly medal for every 234,000,000 people. The United States won 126 medals which is one or every 2,600,0000. In the 2020 Tokyo Olympics India won 1 medal.

Why don't Musk and Ramaswamy understand people want well rounded citizens who aren't specializing in high school and are taking AP English and APUSH in addition to STEM classes and playing sports. So it takes then a year or two more to catch up with someone from another country who don't value being well rounded.

Which engineer would you rather hire? Someone who has school spirit like Daniel from Cal Berkeley who is a sophomore civil engineering student who shows up at 11:40 at night to attend an ESPN Game Day show at Cal before a football game, and who can then kick a field goal and win 100,000 for himself and $100,000 for hurricane victims OR someone who has no idea what football is even about and never goes to a college football game because they are a recluse in their dorms?

They’d hire the better engineer.  Nobody gives a add crap whether an employee is “well rounded” or played high school football.[/quote] 
Maybe but they aren't better just cheaper. That's what this is about.[/quote]

Some tech companies already paid the price of "cheaper is better" - cheaper isn't always better.  A lot of companies have been burned by outsourcing to Indians, where their code took longer because of communication problems, lack of subject matter expertise, cutting corners and so on.[/quote]

The amount of people I know in tech who have had to correct their code and work in general is insane. They’re not “smarter.” They’re cheaper. [/quote]
