  First, 10%+ of SFs population leave. Then, small businesses die. Then, VCs leave. Then, startups. Then, @elonmusk. Then, @HPE. Now, @Oracle. Sky-high prices & a collapsing tax base. Fanciful, onerous rules. Crime spikes. Terrible traffic. Homelessness. Let's end bad governance. h…

  What's the deal with Big Tech and Texas? @Oracle is moving its headquarters from Redwood Shores, California, to Austin, Texas. The move is the latest in a string of tech giants fleeing Silicon Valley for the Southern state. 👇 https://www.businessinsider.com/ ...

  What is San Francisco going to be like now that it is losing the thing that makes it special (Oracle's headquarters being located in Redwood City)?

  And other multibillion dollar tech companies have gone full remote. We're entering the next phase, what we've been building towards over the last few decades: a global two-sided marketplace of technologists and policymakers. Go where we're welcome, leave where we're not. https://…

  Remote work is literally changing our business landscape, but what I'm seeing is the megatrend of remote work unleashing the independent talent economy. The more we got remote, the more the independent talent market expands. This is inning 0.5 https://www.bloomberg.com/...

• @primalpoly Geoffrey Miller on x

  Important point: if the entire class of people who could potentially work remotely is suddenly allowed to work remotely, they can move anywhere on the planet. Nations & states will have to compete much harder for their physical presence. Big implications for governance. #exit htt…

  as a Northern California Democrat, I would feel so trolled if a bunch of aggrieved billionaires moved their tech companies to Texas, simultaneously easing housing prices in the Bay Area and transplanting thousands of college-educated cosmopolitan liberals to a swing state. https:…

  Oracle moving HQ to Austin isn't as interesting as the fact employees can choose their office location,or continue to work from home part time or full time. Companies are strongly incentived to replace real estate costs with Zoom licenses. This isn't over https://www.cnbc.com/...
