Forgive me if I don't feel sympathetic to the plight of the poor programmers in SF. Everybody flocks to SF because that's where all the venture money is at. Which is just fine; you want to hit it big with yet another social startup? That's great for you, but I'm not going to feel sorry for you if you don't win the lottery. There are plenty of other places in this country that are vibrant, fun places to live that are also affordable and offer lots of opportunity. I'll enjoy SF as a tourist, thank you.
Sigh. This just REEKS of jealousy while genuinely making no sense. The article is about the non programmers of SF getting pushed out of affordable living by the programmers. Having the response, "well boo hoo, how could I feel bad for these programmers" feels like you either didn't read the article or just wanted to feel better about yourself. Don't get comments like this at all.
