I wonder how much of silent damage I've taken to my tech career XP simply because I am a northeast "yankee" to the core and know nothing of the interconnected SF culture of doing shrooms with Peter Thiel or whoever at your Sunday night rooftop party

ok it's not literally this but I don't get it, the taking expensive lyfts up and down the bay area or to Oakland or some town whose name starts with San and going to a party where everyone and their roommate is a founder at age and rides bikes and migrated to Clubhouse

Umm that’s almost completely irrelevant scenester theater at least on the hacker side. Plenty of big tech contributions from the rest of the world. On the hustler side, it matters a little bit to vining with fund-raising culture but you can ignore it otherwise.

What you’re describing is actually the high incidence of openness to experience which leads to a lot of lifestyle experiments. This makes most of the scene a good test market for tech. Actual entrepreneurship and building tech doesn’t require participation in the scene.
