I can feel the incredible arrogance of this post from here. "I, who came from the source of half the problems we're in, am smarter and better because I am from the Valley. I will fix everywhere else's problems because I am optimistic about it!"

- yesimahuman 6y agoYea, this was hard to read and was oozing with SV elitism and savior complex. I live in the suburbs in the Midwest. I work in tech. My company builds open source technology used by millions of developers around the world. My neighbors work at leading health care technology companies or startups. We did all of this on our own. In fact, many of us here in tech have scars from being discounted outright by SV investors simply based on location. Show some respect and humility for what we've built here on our own, without your seemingly necessary support, or you'll find this movement backfire.
