        relocating to San Francisco is an even more overt "leak in the seal" anyone who can't afford $2m house not welcome on TripleByte

        This is one of my fav essays except for the left/right comment at the end. The left is more likely to resist inherited privilege.

        Only the proletariat are valued based on skills. Upper-class careers are still predominately credentials and experience based.

        I hope it has, 'cause TB still is SF-only and non-remote. To "find talent wherever they might come from", it's time for the next step
