Apparently we're supposed to believe Silicon Valley is the only city privy to such little-known entrepreneurial know-how like "dream big" or "if you fail, try again" or "try and open doors and listen to people" - wow, seriously? Did they teach you that at Harvard?
Honestly, shit like this is beyond insulting - it's ignorant, elitest, and arrogant at best.
According to him, Silicon Valley became what it did NOT because of the historic semiconductor and electronics industries that were born there, NOT because of the world-class universities that reside there, NOT because of the major geographic significance of being a historic port city... no, no, no... none of that - it's because (now pull your notepads out you land-locked hillbillies in the midwest)... it's because Silicon Valley is a "trusting community" filled with "tribes of trust"...
Oh, well FUCK ME dude, you're right - places like Oklahoma just have the wrong fucking tribes! Too many Cherokees and Apaches, not enough "trust tribes"...
(sorry, this really pissed me off...)
