'The advantage of joining Google/Facebook/Twitter for 2-3 years is that you’ll be encouraged to develop more reliable systems, and learn how to build things which are designed for scale from the beginning.'

He should say it's good to have a job working on scalable, reliable systems from the beginning. It's kind of ridiculous that he's implying google/facebook/twitter are the main ones working on that. I guess every other company in the world designs their code to work in a single python process...maybe SQLite as the backend right?

I agree with you, but change SQLite to MongoDB and you have a significant share of the "next big startups," at least.
