what? I mean if Palmer was based in Estonia then I'd concede, but he literally made his first company in the bay, and then worked at FB this is not really a counterexample... also where is Trae based again?

Had to poach engineers from Taco Bell HQ.

One of biggest companies in the world, Broadcom/Avago?

Look twitter fights can’t be resolved in a “both of you have good points” decision. We need a clear winner here.

omfg and where did palmer, as an ambitious no-name 19 year old move to first? Remind me again? Oh the fuckin bay area? Yeah when he had sold a company for a $1b+ then he was able to export success to another geo I can't tell if you're just purposefully being obtuse

Actually, I moved from Long Beach to Irvine to start Oculus. We didn't move to the bay area until long after FB acquired us, and they paid everyone a huge incentive bonus to do so.
