As far as I can tell, Suarez is a joke. The county wields all the power, and the city itself is utterly reliant on the county. Furthermore, Miami, like a lot of Florida, is mostly driven by real estate and money laundering of illicit money, not by any tech whatsoever. It's also become a playground of the uber-rich libertarian subset of the PayPal mafia, but otherwise, there is no startup activity out of Miami. Using this as some sort of exemplar instantly diminishes the credibility of the article. Also, the comparison to Yahoo is weird. It has ceased to be a big name for the longest time, but as a mismanaged and dysfunctional company that missed the bus several times, it is second only to Hewlett-Packard. H-P is a far better analogue of what SV has become.
