I heard someone contrast Indian tech workers with Eastern Eurpoean
workers that may also explain some of the shift to Eastern Europe.
You send the specification to the Indian, he reads it gets confused asks
for instruction and shuts down. There are several iterations of this
until the spec is very exacting and precise and almost Pseudo code (ie
could have done it yourself)
You send the spec to the Eastern European, they spend the day outside
smoking cigarettes then turn round and build you what you needed and the
solution incorporates the next generation of features that you will
need.
The thought processes seem to be very regimented / limited in India and
much more flexible in Eastern Europe.
