"But the problem with y'all cats today, is that you got no skill. No sense of history. And then, with a straight face, got the nerve to want to be somebody. Want somebody to respect you. But it takes respect to get respect. Understand? See, I'm old. But, Lord willing, I'd be spared the sight of seeing everything that we worked for flushed down the drain by someone who don't know no better or care."
I like to reflect on how well that applies to software development. Candidate interviews particularly give food for thought.

I totally agree with you. India is far behind in sharing. In fact if you meet just passed college graduates they only talk about visio studio .net asp.net etc .. even some of them don't know how to install a software using linux shell. So it's shame and how many of us are contributing to open source development.. very few
