Features of the mentality of foreign developers

It will be about some fun features of the average foreign developers.

So, the average foreign developer (hereinafter SZR):

Supports any undertaking


There is quite a serious difference between Russian and foreign developers.
')
Show your project to the Russian public - and you will get a lot of criticism: “Nafig it is necessary”, “this already exists”, and then in the text.
And everything will end, as usual, with holivar between the winducers and the niksoids.

In the bourgeoisie, by no means, the reaction to any curve-slanting-dull garbage will be a mass of rave reviews: “Come on, brother! Preach brother! This is exactly what we need, brother! ”(Well, exaggerated a little)
In the infamous joke - only a fraction of the joke.

Do not use Google *


Well, maybe, and enjoys, but somehow ... not for the intended purpose, or something.
Remember how the Russian-language forum topic usually looks like with a simple question: the first answer will certainly be “RTFM”, the second one will be “google”.

SZR will not google!

For SZR, for some reason, it is easier to ask a question and then wait a week, even if the answer is in Google the first link. He will again and again go to the forum or the IRC channel and ask the same question until he receives an answer.
By the way, knowing how to use the search, you can easily become a guru!

They do not like Google, oh do not like.

Afraid to try


Quite often you can find a question like “what will happen if we change the string indices to numerical ones here?”, Or, more often, “will such a piece of code work here?” (Followed by a piece of kilobyte code for two).

I really can't understand what prevents SZR from simply running this code and seeing the result on its own?

Sometimes it comes to the point of absurdity: you answer him: well, take it, try it!
Oh, says, cool idea! It seems to work! But will such a piece of code work?

Oh mom mia, what are they all afraid of? Is Big Brother watching them?

Such are the pies.

* UPD: and do not like RTFM! See also the practical comments below about the dangers of excessive googling.
