Now you might think that, the way things are going, by 2025 a person born without VC connections (i.e. an EIR position earmarked for him when he's in the womb, somewhat like a trust fund) will have to live in a shantytown in order to have a shot at surviving in VC-istan.

Well, I'm here to tell you that you're wrong. He won't have to inhabit a shantytown. He'll have a nice storage cell to live in.



Is there anything that is not somehow VC-istan's fault?


Please let me know if you think of something, so I can be sure to figure out how it is in fact VC-istan's fault after all.


There are lots, but none in michaelochurch's life apparently.


Please figure out a way to connect the rise of Islamist insurgencies with VC-istan somehow :)


I was actually half-joking. I don't actually believe that software engineers will have to work out of storage cells in 12 years. It was a Snow Crash allusion.
