Yea one of the best devs I've worked with were Latin America. TFW a guy living in the mountains an hour away from Santiago knows Kafka and AWS better than everybody else

I don't think I've seen them work harder though. They were all very strict about 40 hours and were very aware of the class dynamics of boss and worker. Americans who have drank the Kool aid and obsessed with job titles and career prestige worked the hardest in my experience, closely followed by Chinese workers
