yahoo news | ‘Miami is the new San Francisco' as rising housing costs push residents out

Miami was widely promoted during the pandemic as the next Silicon Valley, drawing venture capital and startups away from California to sunny South Florida. New census data, however, shows that between July 2024 and July 2025 the Miami metropolitan area experienced the nation’s highest share of population loss due to domestic out‑migration—about 1.8% of its total residents. While Miami‑Dade County still posted a modest net loss of roughly 10,000 people in that period, it marks a sharp reversal from the previous year’s 2.3% growth, the second‑fastest increase among U.S. counties.

Researchers point to housing affordability as the chief driver of this exodus. The University of Florida found nearly half of Miami‑Dade households are “cost‑burdened,” spending more than 30% of their income on rent, and for families earning under $75,000 annually, three‑quarters fall into that category. Compared with the Bay Area, Miami lacks a deep pool of high‑paying tech jobs; most of the fastest‑growing local occupations projected for 2030 are hourly wages of $19 or less, including cooks, wait staff, housekeepers, and warehouse workers. This contrasts with San Francisco’s still‑large tech sector, even though both regions face severe affordable‑housing shortages.

Despite the out‑migration trend, Miami continues to attract high‑profile tech figures and companies seeking to avoid California’s proposed billionaire tax. Palantir announced a move of its headquarters to the Miami area, and notable investors such as Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg and Google co‑founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin have purchased property in South Florida. Still, the city’s emerging tech hub is confronting the same affordability pressures that once drove residents out of San Francisco, making “Miami the new San Francisco” a fitting, if cautionary, description.

"The ruling sent shockwaves through #SiliconValley and sparked hope among families and child safety campaigners that change may finally be coming to #socialmedia. Mark Zuckerberg’s #Meta and Google’s #YouTube were found liable for deliberately designing #addictive products used by Kaley and millions of other young people.
It was one case centred on the suffering of one young person who became depressed at 10 and self-harmed, but Kaley, referred to by her first name or the initials KGM in order to protect her privacy, was the figurehead for a much bigger fight.
“We wanted them to feel it,” one of the jurors explained to reporters. “We wanted them to realise this was unacceptable.”"

Axios: Scoop: New pro-AI group preps $100M midterm blitz to boost Trump’s agenda . “A new pro-AI political operation is jumping into this year’s midterms with a plan to spend more than $100 million, the latest push by a big-money group to promote a deregulation agenda.”

The SDs, the SSDs, the HDDs, the DIMMs, the SO-DIMMs, the SoCs, the CPUs - let alone the GPUs. Anything containing chips will be highly overpriced due to #AI and #SiliconValley financing basically lining up billion dollar bar tabs while disturbing every hardware market in sight. You could say that's by design.

You'll compute nothing and like it.
