Feels like the energy I’m sensitive to and tend to seek out has moved elsewhere. Not sure where. Tech scene has a very different energy now than 2009-15 when I was most actively in it (I passed through the core of it but was never quite part of it... kinda like a neutrino tour)

Most of my gigs these days are more sustainability than Tech I‘d say. But that doesn’t have a scene around it or a geographic soul. It’s all over the place. Everybody does not know everybody. And it’s bigger/more varied since it’s broader technically and more labor intensive.

Some of the interesting energy from Tech has in fact moved to sustainability but only a fraction, and very diffused over a vaster microeconomic base.

I’d say SV has actually swing more anti-woke than woke, but either way, that’s not the reason.https://twitter.com/aparanjape/status/1310795298579472390?s=21 …

I’m fine with it. I’m mostly a nomad and have never spent more than 5-6 years in a scene. I suspect I’m typical. More people pass through tech than stay. You have to strike it rich to stay, and I didn’t enter any of the lotteries.https://twitter.com/ol_wall/status/1310794466073092096?s=21 …

The Covid-triggered exodus is a whole new wrinkle on this thing. Wonder if the scene will ever build back up to pre-2015 energy.

It’s moving from Big Tech to small tech (creators, solopreneurs, etc.). Those who spent time building tech only to realize they could do it outside SF and on their terms.
