- groby_b 4y agoIt is specifically addressing the GPs statement "as if its usual for any company to know what a 'polycule' is." It is usual for a large number of companies (and tech folks) to know what that means, but disproportionately so for the Bay area. The blog poster certainly works for a company I'd call Bay adjacent, so they wrote in a language familiar to them. It has nothing to do with "only place that matters", but simply explaining that given the context of the writer, it's a high likelihood they assume general familiarity.
