I disagree, I live in Berlin and the startup community is ruining this city. I moved away from San Francisco because of the culture. I hate how people are moving here and bringing that culture with them.

The hacker culture here is good because it stands against people who do things solely for money instead of doing this because they are interesting or worth doing.

They are not only gentrifying our neighborhoods they are gentrifying the word hacker and trying to destroy the culture.
