>I'm often flabbergasted about the number of people here that lives in a bubble with regard to the price of tech Sorry, no. You live in the bubble, the people you think are living in a bubble are actually doing the very opposite and taking advantage of the lack of bubbles in our globally connected world. Today, basically anyone can sell any bullshit to billions of people around the world. We’ve never lived in less of a bubble.

I guess all those people who live in not-SF just can't be bothered to succeed!

  To be fair if you think only people in SF can afford that you do kind of live in a bubble.

    Nobody in this thread claimed that.

      The person you were replying to was not talking about SF but you specifically called out SF so you were implying that

        The thread started with "$200 is a lot for most of the world", the person I was replying to said "no it's not, now anyone can sell to billions of people", and I said "company success being concentrated in SF shows that that's not true". I didn't say "only SF can afford $200/mo".

        I explained it in my previous comment, I'm not going to explain it more than that.

        Again, if you think that only successful companies are in SF you live in a bubble.

        >company success being concentrated in SF shows that that's not true You didn’t say that until now. I think you’re wrong, SF being particularly good for big companies might indicate something if the conversation was about succeeding at a grand scale, not about being able to afford $200/mo

  $20/month is not above middle class in most of the world. $200/month is, but you don't need that for anything except beyond-casual use of coding agents.

  I’ve never been to SF, wouldn’t know anything about it.
