nothing against the author but it seems like he is painting a very wide brush with something he&#x27;s seen for 3? days.<p>i certainly have never taken ubers everyday to work even though i could probably(?) afford to do so. seems like an expensive daily habit though.<p>i actually live in the city where it&#x27;s not some huge loft in fidi&#x2F;downtown. good for anyone who can get their groceries sent up to their room but i&#x27;m not sure how close to the norm that is. tech workers are all across the board in terms of how they live, how much they get paid and how willing they are to fetch their own groceries.<p>i live on the first floor of a older apartment complex, but i have to walk down a hill to fetch my groceries. i do sometimes use one of the gazillion food delivery services to eat dinner though.<p>anyways i would say this is similar to someone who goes to ny, visits the financial district in manhattan for 3 days and then proclaims, &quot;everyone in ny is rich! of course they can afford all that housing! they&#x27;re so stuck up! why are the cabbies so rude? why are new yorkers so rude?&quot;
