"If you have any desire to buy a house without a crushing commute in the bay area, FANGs are the only other alternative."

Meanwhile, ethical people either commute, don't buy house or work elsewhere. You are talking about it as if house in the most expensive city was some kind of entitlement or absolute need that absolves one of any ethical considerations. For that matter, neither does "I want fun work".

Meanwhile, thread about low paid workers being priced out of any living is full of people blaming them for pretty much everything.

I assume you're forgetting the incident where Uber started following users around even when they weren't on a trip?

Also, take note of the fact that I said "outside of the Silicon Valley bubble". Believe it or not, there are other places on earth with companies that employ tech workers.
