But a bunch of people who claim to represent a community will enforce that you do in order to become a member of that community or contribute back to it.
I guess you never lived in a condo, attended a church, or worked in a Fortune 500 company. Every community has representatives who will enforce what you do to become a member and contribute back. I like Python and I like PEP8, so I don't have a problem with the community.
My older brother and his wife make $100,000 per year. They bought a house for $800,000 at the peak of the real estate bubble with a down payment borrow from the wife's 401k. They want to retire but they can't sell the house. The mortgage is still under water since the Great Recession. The wife is still paying off the down payment. The bank won't let them refinance the house. Without selling the house, they have no money to retire on. So they're stuck working until they drop dead from working.
A 1km tall building would be about 330 stories tall. That's not happening anywhere in the San Francisco Bay Area. The tallest building in San Francisco is 60 stories, 28 stories in Oakland and 22 stories in San Jose.
I was making $20,000 per year and paying $800 per month in rent ten years ago, where I went from being a video game tester to a computer security specialist. Most of those years were in Mountain View. I didn't work in Palo Alto until 14 months ago.
When I took Introduction to Java, a pair of students submitted the identical code except for one slight variation. One student used the x variable, the other student used the y variable. The class had a good laugh, the instructor had private conversations with the two students, and everyone submitted their own code.
More like 40% per year. Most financial experts recommend not spending more than 33% of yearly income on housing. I'm just a few percentage points off the norm.
You need to work 20 hours or less at minimum wage to qualify for government assistance in Silicon Valley. Make any more than that, you're too rich. At $50,000 per year, I'm very rich. Elsewhere, that would middle class. Go figure.
A camper truck isn't the same as a motorhome. You really can't park a motorhome in Silicon Valley. You need to go into the outlying areas to do that legally. Sacramento has plenty of places to park a motorhome.
In Silicon Valley, it's luxury condos that are selling the fastest. No developer is building apartments for the masses. Even at my 50-year-old apartment complex in San Jose, the corporate landlord keeps redoing the exterior paint and landscaping to justify charging more rent for a "luxury" apartment. Never mind that they haven't done squat with the interiors, as that would cost real money and cut into profits.
I make $50,000 per year doing I.T. support work in Palo Alto, rent a studio apartment near downtown San Jose for $1,400 per month, and take the express bus to work. Been doing that for 10 years now. Lot more comfortable than a truck camper and bumming food from work.
We haven't even talked about hiring managers. A recruiter I know submitted a dozen resumes for a desktop position at a prestigious law firm last summer. The hiring manager rejected them all for "lacking tenure," which meant three years in the last three positions for a total of nine or more years of experience. The recruiter told the hiring manager that no one with those qualifications exist since the Great Recession came and went, as everyone is doing contract work and taking whatever job that comes along. The position is still open today.
I rewrote my resume 20 different ways in 2009 and 2010. When there were seven job applicants for every job opening, it's hard to distinguish yourself from the crowd. People today like gloss over how bad it was just a few years ago. It's easier to say, "YOU SUCK!"
The problem is with the recruiters and not my resume. They have the mindset to look at the last three positions and/or last three years, expect the last three positions to be the same kind of job, and assume that the next job will be more of the same. I present them with my 2009 resume that had three help desk jobs with two employers in four years, they tell me that they have no help desk jobs available even though I didn't apply for a help desk job. These recruiters couldn't grasp the concept that my I.T. skills might transfer to a different job.
IT support probably doesn't count as a technical job
Have you ever done help desk? That's technical. Have you ever built out a data center? That's technical. Have you ever unboxed and installed 1,000 Dell PCs and 2,000 monitors? That's technical. Have you ever admin 80,000 systems on a single network? That's technical.
Been there, done that. Every job required the use of Microsoft Office because... it was there.

They're leaving Texas. Anywhere else is a better place than Texas.

The two source files had identical file sizes and were compared against each other byte-by-byte. The only difference was the variable name assignment.
As opposed to being house rich? Absolutely!

I have yet to see a programmer who can do two headshots with a single bullet.
No one is forcing you to use PEP8 while programming your own code in Python. If you contribute code back to the community, it should PEP8-compliant.
Three major airports all sharing the same airspace also limits how many tall skyscrapers are built throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.
I know that, you know that. But that's not what the movie shows. Hollywood thinks Silicon Valley is San Francisco, never mind it's 50 miles apart.
A citation from the city will change things in a heartbeat.

And the kitchen sink. Never forget the kitchen sink.
Didn't you see the movie? San Francisco and Silicon Valley are bike ride away from each other!

Plus pay $400 per month to park the motorhome in Sacramento and another $1,000 per month to public transportation into work.

Take this job and shove it! I ain't working here no more!
