Say I find a great startup in Helena (where Helena is a stand-in for the many US cities trying to foster a tech scene).

Also, fun fact, you could buy a house in Helena and pay less than your rent in NYC.

What else is there in terms of opportunities in the tech industry in Helena besides your new ISP?

Did anyone read the article from Helena Cronin that was one after the Eugenics one?

I'm personally in Bozeman, and while Helena has quite a bit going for it, I doubt I'll leave.

I'd say Helena is catching up in a big way with the social attractions of Missoula and Bozeman.

If you're perfect night involves getting drunk on craft cocktails at the hottest gastropub then Helena might not be for you though.

I've always considered moving back to Helena but opportunities like this were previously few and far between.

I find Helena to be dry, wind-swept, and lacking an intellectual community (smoking, drinking and gambling are more prominent).

Would a startup in Helena hire a dev in his late 40s?

My parents retired to Helena the same year I moved to the SF bay area (2001).

Although Helena seems nice, if I was trying to build a growing company, I would be concerned about access to talent.

The "Ayala" story is bright, shiny, and saturated in primary colors, especially red, to match the glitzy surface of Helena's life.

I see no reason for why Mars colonization is needed to "finally bring 3D printing into its own." Anything appropriate for a Mars colony would be as appropriate for overwintering in Antarctica, or for the residents of various islands from the Cook Islands to Saint Helena, or similarly isolated place.

Helena is certainly a nice place, but you have to sell the other aspects than just fast internet.

Helena with enough land to let my dogs run free and terrorize the neighbors.

For one thing, though this may not apply to Helena, the salary differential is not nearly that big when you compare to many other cities.
