   I may be the only person left who loves San Francisco. Just got back from biking from my house through Golden Gate Park past the De Young and Cal Academy to Cliff House and down Ocean Beach. There was sunshine and people were outside. In di

    I did this before and it made sense and was fun at the time. 1) I wasn’t able to get a job at Google, was a freelancer working out of coffee shops in Portland, would fail any algo test. A six figure windfall was a big deal to me at the time

    You should keep an eye on the events calendars - and not just tech meetups. Get outside of the tech bubble. Here are some things I've enjoyed: Live Jazz at Club Deluxe, Madrone Art Bar, Revolution Cafe, Amnesia, Mr. Tipples, SFJAZZ Fir

    Our stack is primarily JS and Java. I pay for IntelliJ, well worth it. Plus I've been using PyCharm as well.

    Same. These have perfect sound for me, are comfortable, and can be had for $60-70 bucks. My only wish is that I could wear them around walking, but they have a long coiled cable.

    Same, bought a place in Seattle through Redfin towards the end of 2014. Went from attending a free Redfin homebuying class to getting the keys to our new place in 30 days. Loved the website and the experience and didn't feel pressured.

    If you are in tech, Seattle has high salaries and no state income tax. Housing costs are rising, but I had a nice 1BR in Capitol Hill for ~ 1700 before buying a 3 BR townhouse in West Seattle with the same monthly cost for mortgage and taxe
