&gt; At Bay Area prices isn&#x27;t that about 5 minutes of developer pay per month?<p>I work for an academic nonprofit. Asking to spend any money is like pulling teeth, and any purchase I make has to go through many layers of bureaucracy who don&#x27;t understand or care what I do and have no incentive to make my life easier. I don&#x27;t want to leave Github, but now I <i>have</i> to, because I just won&#x27;t get the approval to spend hundreds a year. But I know that&#x27;s nothing to Bay Area companies, so the rest of us will just go kick rocks or something.
