I dunno, real estate grift seems more NYC than SV to me. I think ambiguity is due to We marketing itself as a tech brand, but if we look at what really happened here, it doesn’t seem SV beyond the CEOs caricature personality. Even the growth at all costs companies like Uber are driving toward sustainable unit economics.
I’m not one to defend the valley - I was an outsider for the first decade and a half of my career before moving out here and into the fire. There’s a lot of stupid shit that goes on in tech, but what We did is only create the appearance of working from the same playbook.
Maybe on my latter point we really are saying the same thing - I could see how an observer might relate the behaviors.
