Why is everyone involved in Software Development either Indian or Brazilian?

India + Brazil = 1.6 billion people, almost 5X population of little old USA for example.

Every industry is going to be full of indians (and chinese). Of course India has a longer history of learning english.

trvke, you should also include pakistan and bangladesh who are just off-brand indians, and it brings the number to 2 billion

Let's examine what number of individuals in those countries have an IQ of 125 or higher. I'll also examine the US for comparison.
I'll use this as source for the rarity, specifically the 15 SD scale:
https://iqcomparisonsite.com/iqtable.aspx

The IQ's themselves are poorly sourced and controversial, so make up your own mind. But they seem accurate from personal experience:
Indian average IQ: 76
Brazillian average IQ: 86
USA average IQ: 102

I'll adjust the relative score necessary by offsetting it based on the actual values present in those countries. I'll also list the rarities. This makes some assumptions but seems to hold up pretty well overall:
India: 125-24=149 (1 in 1838)
Brazil: 125-14=139 (1 in 215)
USA: 125-2=123 (1 in 16)

Let's calculate the number of individuals with an IQ of 125 or higher in each country:
India: 1.464.000.000/1838 = 796.518
Brazil: 213.000.000/215 = 990.698
USA: 347.000.000/16 = 21.687.500

So how come you are seeing so many Brazilians and Indians on social media pages focused on technology and software?
Well, it is simple. The number of tech workers in each country is independent of IQ.
People no longer enter the field because of their innate interests, but rather because of the status and economic success associated with it.
This association stems from high IQ pioneers that were naturally interested in technology and able to innovate heavily, providing great economic value and therefore profit.
Knowing that the average tech worker in Brazil or India is less intelligent than an American one, we can deduce that it is harder for them to achieve the same level of success, as they provide less economic value.
As a result they would have to make themselves more attractive to potential employers.
By accepting compromises, like lower pay, for instance.
But they will also aggressively use social media to promote themselves and bolster their resumes, as to improve visibility and choice.
I hope this explanation is satisfactory.

Another thing is that a lot of these thirdies that you see posting about tech online are unemployed or work dead end jobs like custom service while trying to become influencers or hustle online. And when you have like 4 billion people on the planet that are all some shades of brown with low IQ trying to make it out of the slums with technology you just end up with the result that is today's internet.

They're just smarter. Most programming languages were created by foreigners either from Europe or Brazil.

I don't think people understand how big Brazil is. Brazil is about 2/3 the size of the US. Not enough people respect the size and power of Brazil.

For Brazil, we actually have great free colleges. If you get past the filter of 1/3 of the population being functionally illiterate AND make it to the end of one of the grueling STEM curriculums in what are some of the best universities in Latin America, you're most likely pretty smart overall. Also >>106748235 is absolutely a top reason.

Yet their horrible accent and atrocious broken English makes them incomprehensible to understand. Like, you can barely get what the fuck are they trying to communicate if you have worked with Indians before.

They're cheap.
And personally, I'd rather work with south Americans than fucking jeets.
They both suck, but Brazilians and by extensions other south Americans are otherwise friendly and come from an intelligentsia that is at least recognizable.
