How the Coronavirus will affect Bay Area Housing Market

You have the quite the track record of spewing bullshit but this is a new low.

Take a look at Zoom. Their CEO begged Cisco to let him build a way better WebEx. Some jerk (maybe a racist like yourself) wouldn’t listen to him so he went out and built something way better and is kicking their ass while building a $100B business.

Just one example of many.

When I look at that list, I think most are 50+ years old who was in the right environment at the right time maybe except DAngelo. I highly doubt there were many asians/indians with access to computers in the 70s, 80s and even 90s. I’m not trying discredit those on the list but I think you have to consider that fact.

Not sure where you are going with this argument.

The argument is as clear as the fact that you are a racist jerk.

I suggest you come out of the cave and face real world.

I’ve been dealing with people like you my entire life and have done pretty damn well.

I’m not the one crying about property prices or how unfair the Bay Area is because you can’t afford to live here.

Then why get upset with mere facts. The greatest software programmers both old and new are all white male, that’s just stating a fact.

Zoom is not new innovation. previously mass deployment video conferencing done.

At a personal level, I do not have any problem with the statement above. In fact, I agree with what you said, but what is the conclusion you want me to draw? If you want to sit on your laurels and live in the fantasy of past glory, I can understand. But, to me, this means nothing in the long run. If it does to you, please tell me what is it?

Also, to me, the above statement is not a racist statement. I am just as proud of the achievements of White people or European Heritage as you are. The credit must be given where it is due.

Not drawing any conclusions. I am neither white nor European and its not a racist statement either. It is just a fact and you can use this factual data to make smarter investment decisions. Earlier I stated that white flight from Bay Area is really bad for the long term future based on this data.

This is full of self-hatred. Self hatred because you feel sorry of inability for whites to continue leading in a world that is shaping up. To quote Dr Phil, three sources of anger: Fear, Frustration, and hurt Feeling.

I thought I put a disclaimer that it was just an analogy not derogatory.

Your disclaimer does not change facts. And if it is derogatory, it is for you. Personally, I do not care what you believe.

This is outrageous and unwanted derogatory comment, whoever you refers too ! This shows the similar hatred Trump inflicts on South American countries.

Your understanding is very poor. Every country has their own experts/independence from others.

I am not telling that India will over through USA or any other country in software field, but they have equally intelligent people running their life.

Webex was founded by IIT - Indian, Sun Microsystems was co-founded by another IIT - Indian…etc I can make the list. Sundar Pitchai - even though he is not a founder - is from IIT. Those who studied in IIT are most welcome (with financial aid) by all IVY institutes including Stanford.

India has fourth in world billionaires, i.e., lot of entrepreneurs out there, hotmail was started, flipcart, now paytm (warren buffet invested) …

Biggest IT consulting companies such as TCS (400000 employees), Wipro (180000), infosys (200000)…plenty of IT firms.

Intelligence/Mathematics : S.Ramanujan ( The Man Who Knew Infinity) - really lived still unable to get proof, even after 100 years, of what he wrote down the results !

Shakuntala Devi (Human Computer), she won against computer mathematics.

Billionaire Mukesh Ambani, he lives at 2 Billion worth of his own tower building. His home is valued next to Queen Elizabeth Palace.

Last but not least, vice president elect Kamala Harris mother from India.

Everyone here is not parasite, they have their own life and ambitions, and achieve their goals.

Have you read “Guns, Germs and Steel”?
It is an interesting book.

This kind of language is not OK on this forum. Consider this a warning.

In October, the inventory of existing single-family homes for sale dropped to 2.4 months’ worth — the lowest since records began in 1982, the NAR said.

The price of building materials such as lumber for framing houses more than doubled during the pandemic

This is one side of argument.
How come Korea/China/Japan/French/German/Russian multinational firms not hire Indian CEOs?. just look around how fast these countries taking global contracts and the quality of there products.
if US had no military forces in Middleast (huge money) (Mostly weopons built in Midwest). These Middleastern countries will buy better quality and cheaper products from US competitors. and we will have more unemployment. There is no way these deadbeat firms of Silicon valley can provide Jobs on same scale. rather further outsourcing will accelerate that will add to further polrization.
