      You honestly think the edge of being in the Bay Area during the pandemic has lost its edge for venture scale businesses? Even if 20-30% of the most talented people leave the Bay Area that still means 70% of people are still here that have scaled these tech companies before.

      1/Young folks don't aspire to come to San Francisco and overpay for an apartment anymore... 2/those young folks can work for a great company remote now. only 5-10% of gigs were remote, now it's 100%, and post-pandemic it will be 50-75% I predict 3/investors now invest remote

          you put those three things together, I think it means you can build a business in Austin, Reno, Miami, Colorado, Utah, LA, Toronto, and get taken as seriously by investors as those folks in the Bay Area. that's the change... and it's real.

          You always could do that and there are many example. Look at Shopify, Domo and Qualtrics. There is a lot of generalizing as if this is a binary choice. However I strongly think that starting a tech company in the Bay Area you still will still have a massive advantage.

          1. Driven people (like I was and did) will do anything to increase their odds of success like split a $5k house 5 ways. 2. Who will get the raise/promotion/better mentoring? In-person or remote? This is only applicable to specific jobs but 100% it is not.

          3. Yes angel/seed investing will change forever. But as a series A or B investor isn’t it a plus to invest in a company that can pull from the bay area network of talent.
