You get karma fast on HN by reposting BBC and Reuters.

Ah. Modern Times.

European job hoppers I know ended up in the Valley or fully remote.

Not really, the high-speed line was supposed to connect to Spain and Toulouse and the beaches of courses (it's not named LGV SEA for nothing).

Fresno is a county seat and there's Cal State. That's it.

Same in France, every local baron wanted his dedicated HS line, so now we got plenty but only one is profitable.

The article missed the entire point that the LGV Sud-Est branches out not to small cities, but to the beach and the French Alps. I doubt Cincinnati or Knoxville are as attractive as Grau-du-Roi or Megève.

Seems like it's regulars getting nixed.

Their shtick is Inbound Marketing, making clients come to you.

Spamming blogposts on HN works really well for that. Works even better if it's good blogposts.

edit: Dan Lyons (Fake Steve Jobs) wrote a book on his time there.
