That's pretty idealistic, borderline naive. There's a huge percentage of working programmers in Silicon Valley who are dead wood. Beyond that, there's loads of good ones who are working on doomed projects.
- gte910h 16y agoSure there is! Didn't say everyone was making bank deservedly. I said you're stupid to run your business there if you don't need some of the very good ones who flock there, as costs are absurdly high. One great guy can pull a company along if its small enough and the deadwood does little enough harm. (Note I keep saying "there" etc. I live in Atlanta, a much more reasonable cost city for businesses that don't need stupidly good people to really work).
