A more accurate version about why Silicon Valley is where it is can be found in Steve Blank's lecture series "Secret History of Silicon Valley".

All the while Reagan's war on drugs and poverty gave birth to one of the worst ghettos in America right next door to all of this. Often left out of the conversation is that Palo Alto's neighbor East Palo Alto became the nations homicide capitol in the early 90's. And it's not over, gentrification is pushing the local residents out. Collateral damage to a booming local economy that continues to thrive.

reason there is shortage of good crop growing regions - cities are built on them. Get science to figure that out.

William Shockley also advocated for eugenics and studied the link between race and IQ scores. Interesting how someone so smart can also have such radical ideas and concerns about protecting the human race.. he basically predicted the movie "Idocracy" in real life.

Professor O'Mara was my favorite professor at the University of Washington. Every class was fascinating and I highly recommend her books if you have a chance to read them. I was never interested in tech history until taking her classes

Are there two different histories in the world Tech and the other overall history? He loved his mother, not the same thing as the "smarmy" "mother's boy" smear you tried to use. Why slam him for taking care of his mother? For a woman to use that sort of slur gives feminists a bad name. Who are you anyway? Margaret O'Mara an academic, what actual experience do you have? Perhaps you should start your Big Think pieces by identifying yourself.
