About as large a culture shock as one can get in Modern America today ;)
Not to hijack, but have heard tech incubation in Gainesville, FL is getting some buzz and is attractive to startups frugality-wise. Anyone down there?
never a more laughable thing has there been uttered. UF has an "incubator" that consists of wet labs repurposed for house software startups (we were literally in a room with test tube holders and sinks and no proper desks). there are some random coworking spaces (like the one that doubles as a dorm lolol) but mostly everyone is a complete wantrepreneur. tech talent coming out of UF is also solidly mediocre (anyone good goes to SF or NYC). finally unless you love football and/or nature walks (not hikes) the town is dreadfully boring.
My thinking was: it's close to Cape Canaveral, so I can film launches ;)
