Economic fates of folks I know:

This one (originally from California) graduate student I knew who was looking to get back there and had scrounged up a tech job in the past year or so and had moved out there had on LinkedIn the other day that he's now looking for a new job in the city where I used to live, and where he had moved from.

I can't figure out if he lost his tech job, or if living in California is sh*t, or if something happened in his life to draw him back to his old haunts.

A part of me thinks it's the tech economy being unstable, though, and I feel justified in deciding not to try to move in that direction five years ago, when I had considered it for a very short minute.
