On: Californians aren’t leaving the state en masse but are leaving San Francisco

[hindsightbias]

SF trolled tech and let them have the Tenderloin. It took all those bright folks a decade to figure it out.

[mdgrech23 → hindsightbias]

Don't understand this comment? Did SF encourage tech companies to locate in the Tenderloin?

[coryrc → mdgrech23]

It's more sarcasm than not. He's saying it was never a desirable area but tech companies moved there anyway despite theoretically having the money to be nicer places.

[jeffbee → coryrc]

Name a tech company with an office in the Tenderloin.

[somehnrdr14726 → jeffbee]

I can't think of one, but I also can't tell the difference between the tenderloin and SOMA anymore.

Everyone's comments makes sense to me if you swap SOMA in for tenderloin

Microsoft, Twitter, Dolby are 3 who share an intersection! Square and Uber just a block away.

[jeffbee → maya24]

Like the other people who replied, you flunked geography. None of these companies are anywhere near the Tenderloin.

[NotChina → jeffbee]

Zendesk, twitter, and dozens more.

[NotChina → mdgrech23]

Yes. It did. The mayor was in our office to celebrate the tax incentives of companies to relocate there. Then Twitter followed.

They’re intelligent, not bright.

What is the difference?

[panzagl → dan-robertson]

18 Intelligence, 3 Wisdom.

[gamechangr → dan-robertson]

Not OP but

Intelligence is having knowledge (think book knowledge )

Bright is like sharp. (think street smart or think things through that are complexed)

I have friends that I consider very intelligent that are not bright. One makes $200k as an actuary but can't figure out how to talk to his kids in a way that sounds human/normal.

That does not seem to be the typical definition of intelligence: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence#Definitions

Intelligence is usually defined in terms of adaptability, ability to learn, solve problems, etc.
