i dislike how silicon valley glorifies being mean as if mean = honest. hardly. the honest truth is nobody is perfect and we all struggle with something. being a prick just means you cope with your issues through negative externalization. in the end you learn to regret this or devolve into a real selfish bastard.

where does it glorify that? I've found incredibly nice people here in SV.

there are definitely nice people in sv too! many many! 

there are also several sv (+ US tech outside of SV) tech main characters who are smart but rude, selfish, and/or explicitly and provocatively racist, who are routinely raised up without the slightest mention of their less becoming characteristics.

The online persona’s are significantly worse than in person. 

The amount of time people give to help on random things here is pretty incredible, haven’t seen it in any other industry/geo.

Totally believe you. I need to spend more time there.

very down to hang at f inc and build space.
