Does It Make Sense for Programmers to Move to the Bay Area?
This point is interesting:<p><pre><code>  [3] We find that engineers often under-value startup success
  (growth rate, revenue) when looking for jobs, and instead
  place an emphasis on brand-recognition, or whether they find 
  the subject area exciting. Now, I don&#x27;t mean to judge anyone 
  for this — working in an areas of passion may be great 
  choice. But if your goal is to maximize your financial 
  outcome, looking at startups more like an investor and 
  picking a company in a big market on a promising trajectory 
  is likely a winning strategy. The Bay Area, with a large 
  number of startups, is probably the best place to do this.</code></pre>
