From my experience going to meetups and seeing the kind of job postings that get thrown up out here, there's just more of an "enterprise" mindset here. A lot less "hard" tech being pursued. I think it's because there's not a lot of VC money (relative to the west coast and Boston/N.Y) so startups need to be more focused on generating revenue sooner. No long runways out here (for the most part).

This seems to select for business that find cash generating opportunities as opposed to chasing "changing the world."

Sounds like business plans I can get behind. I find it hard to believe the large-scale goals that are common in SV.
