- tropo 10y agoYou can spend your days writing code to track people and sell ads, or you can spend them writing code to do real stuff like factory automation, smart bombs, automated train control... Bay Area jobs are all about the former. That isn't high impact.
- superuser2 10y agoOh I'd love an actual R&D job somewhere cheaper if it paid similarly after cost of living adjustment. But it seems to mostly be line-of-business CRUD plumbing and legacy-wrangling for Fortune 500 IT departments, under constant threat of outsourcing.
