The problem with comments like yours is that you've chosen to shame the top level posters instead of replying to a single one of them. Shaming works well to enforce uniform beliefs in a tight knit social circle, such as you may have enjoyed in SF before the tech influx. It doesn't work so well online.
- whybroke 12y agoI am in fact a software engineer. When I lived in the city I had fiends who were social anthologists, post docs from over seas, drag performers, dance studio mangers, red cross workers even a poet. Not single one still lives in the city (even though one of them had a building named after him). I only make software so that I can have a rich life outside of a cubical among a diverse set of people who can teach me things. In today's San Francisco that sentiment is no only unobtainable but would render a person un-hire-able.
