It remains the mystery at the heart of Boeing Co.’s 737 Max crisis: how a company renowned for meticulous design made seemingly basic software mistakes leading to a pair of deadly crashes. Longtime Boeing engineers say the effort was complicated by a push to outsource work to lower-paid contractors.
The Max software – plagued by issues that could keep the planes grounded months longer after U.S. regulators this week revealed a new flaw – was developed at a time Boeing was laying off experienced engineers and pressing suppliers to cut costs.
Increasingly, the iconic American planemaker and its subcontractors have relied on temporary workers making as little as $9 an hour to develop and test software, often from countries lacking a deep background in aerospace – notably India.
In offices across from Seattle’s Boeing Field, recent college graduates employed by the Indian software developer HCL Technologies Ltd. occupied several rows of desks, said Mark Rabin, a former Boeing software engineer who worked in a flight-test group that supported the Max.
The coders from HCL were typically designing to specifications set by Boeing. Still, “it was controversial because it was far less efficient than Boeing engineers just writing the code,” Rabin said. Frequently, he recalled, “it took many rounds going back and forth because the code was not done correctly.”
And Apple wants to move phone manufacture there? Good luck.

the jews are doing all this by design, they are using indians to destroy the West.
Get out of the West now and move to a civilized east asian country. The West is beyond any hope of saving.

Refuse to work for any company unless they PAY YOU what you are worth.
The average programmer makes 120,000 dollars a year. If they want to pay you LESS than that, then tell them to fuck off and let them ruin their company with subhuman indians

This is a moment of potential greatness, you should feel lucky to live in a time when you have a chance to prove yourself like this, you should thank powers greater than you often for providing you with the chance to show everyone what you are. We prove our worth or die in bloody gore. Rugii has grown the wheat fields for far to long, the One-Eyed mower has to clean his ranges.

Trump is acting on it but the laws are cucked beyond repair. I think India raised some trade tarrifs when Trump threatened to cap H1Bs. They had talks today at G20 about this.

It's poetic justice to see the last white male goy be embarrassed after every meeting with foreign leaders. After decades of making deals with jews for slave labor, he has nothing to bring on the table but stupid niggers and social justice theory.

Hate to sow blackpills, but look, try to convince any other ethnicity that
They're evil, their ancestors were all evil
They should not have children, should cut off their young boys penises, and should all become gay
Foreigners should be allowed to inherit their countries
Nobody but white westerners are dumb enough to even listen to this bullshit. You could be a 100 ft. tall giga nigga schwarzenegger, you can't beat the retardation out of these people. The Romanovs are dead, our leaders do not share an ethnic identity with us, they don't care about us, and our people are basically zombies.
