Nothing compares to OpenAI at the moment. That argument is a classic example of false equivalence — to draw the two largest valley centric examples and the fastest growing company in the history of the Internet and ask me to find equivalence is asinine and a fools task. It’s further false argument to say “the majority of developers are on the coasts” when the contention is whether there are successful companies elsewhere. The location of software engineering talent density will follow venture market funding availability, not companies that represent non-coastal success stories where that PE and VC money concentrates workers. But there are plenty of companies. https://www.cbinsights.com/research-unicorn-companies https://www.cbinsights.com/research-unicorn-companies > Software engineers live in non-coastal areas and red states and flyovers have plenty of startup successes these days. There are plenty of software engineers in non-coastal areas and plenty of startups successes that aren’t on a US coastline, even if the majority are. Apologies, I can’t reply to your comment. We are in too deep. My best to you.
