You mean "MBA for a fee" Collegium Tumanum, or the best elite two universities which globally barely rank somewhere in the fifth hundred? Sorry it's not education. Poles are cheap and subservient, while cutthroat among each other.

But yeah, it’s just cause they’re cheap and subservient right.

Romania is 6th, Iran is 8th, and your point is?

		That Romania and Iran also have strong education in STEM. Your point is these countries don’t? What point exactly are you trying to make.

IIRC Polish mathematicians were close to being the world's best prior to WWII, people like Banach and Tarski are remembered until today. Also, Enigma didn't get broken by Rejewski being cheap and subservient.

Given how strong Poland used to be in mathematical logic, I can see an alternate history line where WWII does not happen and first computers are developed in Krakow and Lwow.

But computer programming with Polish keywords would indeed be a bit of a hell ;)
