Caterina Fake on how there are great engineers everywhere: <a href="http://www.caterina.net/archive/001215.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.caterina.net/archive/001215.html</a><p>she also touches on some cultural differences between NYC and CA:<p><i>But what NYC is actually missing is not engineers. In NYC you can find lots of great engineers, visual designers, and great publishers and contributors to social media. But in CA I seem to find far more people with multiple skills - engineers who blog and dabble in design, designers who can do great UI but also great UX, etc. These multidisciplinary people are the ones who hack together brilliant new stuff, can innovate across the board, see various avenues of attack, and are indispensable at startups. It is these hybrid people that we are always looking for at Hunch and for whatever reason find them much more often in CA than NYC.</i>
