How is correcting or calling out someone’s sketch behavior wasting time?

Yes and I found it interesting. What gave you the idea that I don’t? Perhaps maybe I don’t talk much on this site and read more articles and comments than you think?
And as far as adding more fuel to the fire, what exactly are you doing?
Same goes with India as well.
I have always wondered about this, may be it is the trade-off between getting caught and the sheer desperation to make money that tilts the moral compass to act in unethical ways.

A very western sentiment. We often deride the quest for profits, demonizing people who put profit ahead of something more noble like safety. But in places like China "profit" is life. China has seen starvation in living memory. In countries without social safety nets a failed business likely means utter destitution, very often leading to physical violence. The people who run restaurants, and certainly the people who work in them, are not chasing profits because they want to drive nice cars. They are chasing profits because they too want to keep eating.
People here are tending towards a hybrid model.
I don't think the hybrid model is optimum, Companies who take decisive steps towards remotely-only or office-only defaults will be better off, as the tools and culture will will adapt better.
A learning curve is a plot of work required for achieving some amount of learning. Those guys just didn't get that that was how it's being used.
"How hard is it to learn Haskell?" Not "How much time does it take to learn Haskell?"
For instance, people will say some things are easy to learn, hard to master (playing Go). Other things are hard to learn but once you have, you're close to mastering them (kinds of problems that have a trick - like integrating e^ax cos bx).
Same, I use OneNote for planning, brainstorming, and storing snippets and random important info. I don't have to worry whether I saved changes, unlike when I used Notepad++ and kept losing notes. I also do a lot of pen-and-paper scribbling, especially when working on an issue for a customer.
I can access OneNote via the web too, so I'm not limited to my Windows workstation for access to my notes (I use two Linux based laptops for inventory and other "on the go" tasks). I think it's one of the best applications to ever come out of Redmond.
