I used to listen to that back in my Visual Basic days. still reminds me of the VB4.
tomorrow... maybe instrumental. some good Hans Zimmers. or perhaps some Nightwish.

Asian+Hacker=even possible? Perhaps if an asian were to take a long enough break from StarCraft and their imported cars. :-p ------------------ [This message has been edited by crazyishone (edited September 03, 2006).] |

Asians have restricted internet access but you can't seriously say where the most skilled people are and what their skin color is. I do wonder a bit what all the russians do though. It's huge country, but quite poor. And this of topic... Matty, I would like to hear the mp3 but are you sure it's freely distributable? ------------------ [VoHW] (Help needed) [Blog] - Truedisciple (mp3) |

Jari, we're referring to asian americans. Yeah, I wouldn't know anything about the college level arch. I mean, the Indian dudes are a given. But from my experience in high school, theres two kinds of asians. The really intelligent ones who whisper if they talk at all, so I almost never see them; and the "hair gel" people who walk around in a big group speaking Korean. (Most asians where I live are Korean). It's sad that "white" people as a general group are less and less involved in the tech fields. ------------------ |
buddboy Member Posts: 2220 From: New Albany, Indiana, U.S. Registered: 10-08-2004 |
well, the group doesn't exist... i like their song 'Jesus Freak', one of my favorites. ------------------ |

I don't mind Asians entering the tech field, its just another example of what you get when the family has yet to disentigrate, good students =D. As for the hispanics, I've seen one guy who even looks like a 'good' student all the others look like gangsters, and I havent seen one in an honors class or AP yet... ------------------ |
ArchAngel Member Posts: 3450 From: SV, CA, USA Registered: 01-29-2002 |
they're all two different types of asians in america. the first and second gens, and the third gens. first and second still have their parents pushing education on their children. they do well in school and their jobs because they had to. by the third generation, this wears out, so your stuck with gamers, ricers and "gangstas." and crazishone, koreans are less like this than the vietnamese or filipino. back to the subject, it's really culture that determines what race gets where. the only reason their are tons of asians and indians (and yes, I exaggerated, their are plenty of whites in tech fields...) is because it's important in the culture. indians are drilled in math and tech early on. asians kids are pushed to study hard. korean schools were unbelievably intense. I aced college calculus in highschool, and I was still behind asian math. and what do I think when I have friends, my age, taking remedial algebra? ------------------ |

Yeah. Don't know what else to say to that really, you covered everything and were entirely right, as far as I can see.... so....no debate to be had... So yeah. Time for food. ------------------ |
Matty Member Posts: 12 From: Weehawken, NJ, USA Registered: 08-30-2006 |
Amazing (bewildering) how a simple post about a song about God turns into a debate (if you can call it that) about "races", video games, and what nations girls are "hot". Wow. ------------------ |
