I agree; this seems like someone with so little technical ability, that I wouldn't be surprised if he did manage to talk someone into a buying a multi million dollar defense project he could not deliver...

> I lost my family, my country my friends, my home and 6 years of work trying to build a better place for posterity.

I get loosing your family / home / friends, but a country? Where did that go?

This sounds like the result of unscrupulous "boot camps" that are common in countries like India - people are told if they sign up and pay $life_savings they can become a programmer and be hired by "The US Government" or other companies for enormous amounts of money.

A mundane class is offered with impractical advice and they're left with no money, little skills, and spamming the internet trying to get "their contract" - and if it doesn't materialize and they go back to the boot camp to complain the scammers blame it on "curl" - see the haxx.se domain? Clearly a hax0r ruined your chance at a better life.

  • Really? The kind of language used in that post about defense contracts and "my country" and "dipshit" screams India to you?

    Or do you just have a prejudice about India and you wanted to make that point anyway?

    Based on the rest of your description, those boot camps sound a lot like that Trump University.
