    Pay attention to the author of this tweet, and note that one of the jobs of an investor is to help with recruiting.

    That report was flagged to death on HN because those numbers are not trustworthy: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18736425

    Because $200k in SF is $100k or so in Austin, $150k or so in Seattle or NYC.

    I don't get why companies do SF. To me, it looks like hiring in Austin or Seattle, for entry level engineers, is a smarter financial move.
