  1.  @FreewayBrent  Yup, I mean SJSU is sort of a joke but even still, compare to any Florida university it is a real engineering school.

  2. Yeah those guys who says low cost or lax covid restrictions don't know jack about tech world.

  3. This, none of them try to build good school districts or have good local engineering schools. They don't build stuff out of thin air.

  6. You cannot hold a war room in remote work like you do in real person. War room is make or break at the last mile / minute of any project.

  7.  @shanekeenaNYC  You don't understand tech. The reason they are worth so much is they can scale with not much extra workers. Same software can be sold many many times over, with the same cost, vs just 1. You cannot do that with manufacturing based company and you cannot make money off coastline management.

  8. Lax covid restriction is not going to make the place a silicon valley. Welcoming attitude to Indian and Chinese, good school district and good universities engineering program however will. Seattle is the obvious #2, Austin may be #3, Miami .... other than Mind Geek I can't find any obvious reason wanting to be there.

  9. Not exactly, they may get something if they are worth keeping or they will leave. On the other hand you get paid handsomely if you work for FANG and not having to deal with IPO.

  10.  @treyshaffer  Dallas is OK at least in Allen and Plano, Florida has no engineering talents locally.
