The original comment I replied to:

> It depends on what you like to do. Countryside living is appealing to many people.

My reply:

> Technologists are probably not typically the ones that find it appealing.

Your reply to that:

> What do you think is so special about technologists that they uniquely prefer urban (or suburban) living? reply

Putting your last reply in the context of the entire reply chain, I'm confused about what you think we are arguing about?

I think we were just using terms differently. "Countryside" to me includes everything from really rural to lots of trees and space while still being within the general sphere of a major metro. Quite a few people in tech like the latter. Not so many the former.
