You needn't struggle so much to find parallels, if you were to even glance cursorily. While the general validity and the degree to which this writer's experience is shared by others can certainly be debated (which is the reason I tabled it in the first place), the fact that there are strong parallels cannot be contested. The agents and parties affected in the two settings, London and S.F., could indeed be different. Nonetheless, the theme remains the same.

> The agents and parties affected in the two settings, London and S.F., could indeed be different. Nonetheless, the theme remains the same. Not really. The OP's theme is simply culture-shock and coming to terms. Your linked piece is xenophobia and anti-immigration, the complete opposite of views held by most technologist in San Francisco and the wider Silicon Valley.
