Am I the only one who sees the irony that so much localization is required for an industry that specializes in remotely connecting resources?

- benmathes 18y agoI don't see irony, just wordplay between "local" and "remote". If you are given a tool that can remotely connect resources then it's not unexpected that you should only build the stuff in one place. You use the remote-connection tool to reach everyone, making anyone doing the same thing elsewhere mostly redundant.
- jodrellblank 18y agoI do wonder if future improvements in communications technology will render the need to go to Silicon Valley moot. If FutureHN can provide both a valleyesque enthusiastic social network and a contact with investors, will the benefits of migrating to S.Valley become less important?
- icey 18y agoIt'll certainly be interesting to watch. I'd like to move to SV, but it's not really practical for me for a variety of reasons. So I'll keep plugging away out here; I don't really need investors (yet), but the idea of having so much technical talent in one place is really what makes Silicon Valley so unique in the world.
