What other Microsoft products (SharePoint, SQL Server, Windows Server, etc.) were used in the solution? What challenge did you solve?

Are Indian Software Engineers really Code Donkeys?

November 19th, 2009

Sometime back I wrote a post about Are Indian Software Developers “Code Donkeys”? . Soon after writing this post I became more active in stackoverflow and started seeing lot of “worst” questions. Almost 80% of the questions are from Indian Developers. This made me think “Are Indian Software Engineers really Code Donkeys?” Don’t believe me? Check out the below questions

1. Give real life examples of Queues?

Answer :

2. I need a free php-ajax enabled contact us form script and mail should come in gmail inbox not spam folder?

I need not tell you why this question is stupid.

3. How can I assign the same IP address to 2 computers on the same network?

Same IP to two computers? That breaks the reason for us to use IP address. I seriously think he should not be coding if don’t know the basics?

4. give the source code in c graphics to show circuit and functions of tri state logic

For your information we don’t sell code in stackoverflow.

5. Browser compatibility problem

And the question goes like this

hi i created a web page , in that the menus are proper in Google chrome and in Mozila Firefox, What should i do for recovering ..

Recovering what? If both works fine then whats the issue? What menu? What programming language? What is the error?

6. what is meant by cloud computing? give some examples

Never heard about Google or Bing?

7. Can someone send me the JAVA LDAP code to connect and to search/modify in a directory server

Stackoverflow is for learning new things and coding better and not for exchanging code.

8. I need finishing my ocaml assignment.

We are not here to do your homework.

Not enough? Just check out more here : http://stackoverflow.com/questions?page=7627&sort=votes . Look for Indian Names.
