In terms of physical locations, Bay area still sounds best bet.
As a signal for evaluating other places, maybe looking at the no of tech meetups on Meetup dot com might give you an idea.
But to be honest, my first thought was hacker news, twitter to 'meet' the best people. You could end up disappointed after moving to any city if your motivation is meeting tech people.
I am looking for entry-level data science generalist roles starting Jan 2020. I enjoy EDA and applying ML techniques in real-world scenarios. I have a PhD in civil engineering, MS in CSE.
Never tired of learning.
Please reach out to me on LinkedIn or email. I promise it won't be a waste of your time :)
i had the same issues especially with photos. As a phd student working in the lab and field, i took many photos over a week that spanned several categories (lab,field, testing, sample prep). many photos belonged to more than one category. at the end of the day (figuratively), i would just sort photos by date.
now i am working on cloud platform with interfaces with a mobile app. i sort photos on the upstream end as i take them with my phone camera, by appropriately tagging and captioning them, and i manage on the web platform.
photos can have multiple tags, can be sorted spatially on a map as well as by time. very very convenient and excelling documentation for my phd work
