> Palo Alto/University Ave is no more the place to be. You have to be in San Franciso.

I agree. The culture, inspiration, community, and experience here is a bit unparalleled. I can just as easily lock myself away to build product as I can go out and get away from marinating in self induced frustrations.

There is also money out here. People are willing to travel and visit, there are a ton of venues for meetups, etc. I couldn't imagine a better place to be (at the moment) for both tech and life.



How can it be "a bit" unparalleled? Is that like being "a little bit" pregnant?


Is there a word/phrase for when you want to use a word, but it sounds cliche, so you try to underplay the use of that word by prepending some diminutive modifier?


Well it's very amusing if you do that to a superlative, it might be better to just go with the cliche.

I sought a synonym for unparalleled for you here:

But these seem to be even worse. Sorry, I tried.
