A lot of Indians contribute a lot to open-source software but donвЂ™t think that they are learning from doing so.

Opinions of Indian developers about AI differs a lot from the rest of the worldвЂЉ-вЂЉwe are more worried about automation of jobs, excited about AI making important decisions, more worried about a singularity type of situation than the world and not so worried about evolving definitions of вЂњfairnessвЂќ in algorithmic versus human decisions.

Most Indians are interested in all new hypothetical tools.

Mobile development has a unique appeal in India.

They are competitive and they are ambitious.

India has a much younger developer population as compared to the other groups.

India has a larger proportion of developers with a college major in a CS related field as compared to the entire world or the other top 3 responding countries.

Not a lot of Indians consider ethics when writing code.

A large majority of the developers from India work at salaries lesser than their counterparts in other developed countries by orders of magnitude.

To make the comparison even more conspicuous, I have also shown the stats for the other 3 top responding countriesвЂЉ-вЂЉUS, UK and Germany. So, I drew up the overall stats for all the responders for each question asked in the survey and then I compared it with the corresponding stats of responders from India only. The top 5 countries which drew the maximum number of responses to this survey (in decreasing order) are: I wanted to explore what made Indian developers so different.

That is when I decided to completely dig into this survey. See that sharp spike near $0 for KDE plot of Indian developers? So, I drew some KDE plots to compare the annual salary of Indian developers and the annual salary of developers all over the world: KDE Plots for annual salary of developers in India (left) and annual salary of developers all over the worldВ (right)ДЄnd then I drew similar plots for the other 3 top responding countries of the survey, i.e, United States, Germany and United Kingdom: KDE plots for annual salary of developers in United States, Germany and UnitedВ Kingdom When I saw that India has the 2nd largest responder count for the Stack Overflow survey of 2018 and that the survey had a question asking about the responderвЂ™s salary, I decided to see for myself how cheap Indian developers actually are. Much has been written about how the developers in those countries feel threatened (or not threatened) of losing potential jobs to cheap outsourcing to countries like India.

Indian developers have historically been working at a fraction of the salary of their counterparts in the developed countries.
