GO TO LOS ANGELES. LOS ANGELES HAS IDEAS TOO. GO INVEST IN LOS ANGELES.
Every day I here stories of kids with half the ability of me getting rich and companies with half my potential getting invested in. I have been a web developer for 10 YEARS running some of the largest websites in southern california, but I am still JUST AN EMPLOYEE. God DAMNIT Northern california get your asses together and step up to the plate The talent is here. We have been conjuring ideas and staying poor. I know the entertainment industry runs the show here, but there is plenty of room! Please get off your LUCKING asses and come to southern california you will see a world of young developers (aging now) who were never offered millions for their ideas doing the work of 10 men. One man armies here running some of the biggest websites in the business, but getting treated like janitors at entertainment companies.
Do you know what hacker news looks like to us one man armies in southern california??? It looks like a fantasy world where people actually discuss technology meanwhile here in southern california it is still taboo and social suicide to mention you do anything with websites in mixed company.
Maybe you should just stay up there and hand money back and forth to each other while we developers here save our pennies and eventually do it ourselves. After all the entertainment industry isn't going to do it. They don't want to lose their slaves. But who do you think builds all those mickey mouse websites, porn and hundreds of miles of online stores. Guys like me with working knowledge from decades and literally suit cases full of ideas. There might even be more developers here than there. But we are treated like garbage and second class citizens.
Well this is an invitation. The entertainment industry isn't going anywhere and as long as you are afraid to cohabitate the same city as them you are missing the kind of talent that prefers warm weather and beaches. What kind of person would enjoy that. The smart kind. Where are all the biggest ideas? They are right here. They always have been. You can sleep on my couch.
