Oh just in this case I was working at a security company and everybody we imported were from Israel. I’ve worked st 3 security companies and they all either had Israeli offices or had acquired Israeli security startups. It just seems to be a thing there.

This is exactly how American companies game the h1b visa system. When I worked at AVG we would write job requirement so specific to an Israel developers who worked for one of our subsidiaries that it was clear no other human being in the world could qualify for it.

Agreed, the prospector mentality will never leave, but it is changing. You couldn’t mine gold from Utah, but you can certainly sell silicon snake oil from there.

The pandemic seems to be is helping legitmize / mainstream “remote-first”. It is already facilitating the exodus of those who view the bay as an inconvenience imposed upon them.

Read any article comments about the bay area here on HN and primarily there are two types of comments: those who hate it here but live elsewhere, and those who hate it here and desperately want to leave.

I know many people like that( and every time I see their location updates on LinkedIn showing they have left, I take a shot of Fernet. I’ve been drinking a lot lately!

I am a native San Franciscan, and an engineer looking forward to the tech exodus.

Most startup prospectors really hate our culture. Once the financial incentive goes away, people are free to seek their fortunes and happiness elsewhere without impacting ours.

With his arrogant “we’re engineers let’s disrupt everything we don’t understand” attitude, he should really apply to Ycombinator. If not, I’m sure mrs bannister or peter thiel would fund him.
