Geekwire reports that Puppet, the company behind the eponymous configuration management software, is set to expand to Seattle, Sydney and Singapore. The company already has offices in Belfast and Portland.

Chef, perhaps Puppet's great rival in the burgeoning field known as DevOps, is headquartered in Seattle, which sets up an interesting battle for talent over the next few years. A lot of Bay Area companies have opened up offices in Seattle after tiring of the talent wars in California [...]

    Seattle is a well-known sausagefest [returnofkings.com] but it has 2527 furries [meetup.com].

    Neat.. Seems Seattle has the most feminists per capita [returnofkings.com]:

    1. Seattle – Tacoma
    Even though it’s only the 15th most populated center in America, it had the highest FPC, scoring 2.77 standard deviations above the mean. For those of you who don’t know math, let me tell you that that’s insane. I’ve never been there before so can someone tell me is it just a city of ugly feminists walking around with Skrillex haircuts and stupid tattoos?

    As long as women have the gender ratio in their favor these perverted views may flourish.

    Sorry Microshaft, Amasuck and Puppet. Any tech worker that does due diligence will be very wary of moving to Seattle. Bad choice. It seems to be the city where it always rains both in a metaphoric sense and in the physical.

    Are fleshlights, dolls and feminist radar app, tax deductible in Seattle? :P
