Apple asks its San Diego Siri quality control team to relocate to Texas
121 Apple workers have until the end of January to choose.
Seems like something that WFH would solve without having to upend so many employee lives.

No one from California wants to move to Texas.
Its slowing down recently but in 2021 and 2022 it was a very popular topic and many people did move from CA to TX.
And guess what happened in 23? A LOT of those people came RIGHT back to California lol

Looking at census data: https://www.sfgate.com/local/article/california-exodus-census-analysis-18509264.php
California was one of 11 states whose inmigration rate was lower than the national migration average of 19.9%. The data says that many of the people (44,279) who moved to California last year came from Texas. The second-highest number of people (31,225) who moved from a different state to California came from New York.
Well, lots of people move to Texas from all kinds of states. You could make an article about each one if you tried. Also, people are moving to California from Texas—and everywhere else. You could write an article about each of those places if you tried.
My point is, people who bleed blue don’t move to Texas unless they have to. And, with recent politics, Texas is a much harder pill to swallow for anyone left of center.
I’m sure the lefties in California would love to get rid of the righties. Maybe they could make a 1:1 trade, lefties for righties.
The Central Valley disagrees.
Sorry, coastal California ;)
You know, where the people live
San Diego is one of the biggest major cities with a Republican Majority and it’s in Cali. Now considering these are tech workers they may care, but I’ve worked with my fair share of tech libertarians. Especially here in Cali.
They probably wouldn’t like Austin though.
That's not really true. Most of California is very conservative, just not very populated. There's probably a good number of people who at least would say they want to live in Texas, although they'd probably hate it once they realize what the state of California does for them.
Most of the…land? This is the verbal form of “map more red libs get owned”
pretty much exactly. we need to get a bunch of liberal people to move into those areas and push the rednecks and klansmen out
Perhaps the first comment was worded poorly. It's less populated in comparison to some of the most populace cities in the world. There's a lot of Republicans in California who would probably say they want to live in Texas. There are just a massive number of people in California.
You said most of California is conservative. Which is just flat out wrong. If u had just left that incorrect statement out then the rest of that comment would have been OK.
Most of California, by land mass, is. Most, by population, is not. Those are both true.
People tend to think of California as an exclusively blue state, and I think that's ignoring the dangers the right can cause who live there. They are there, and they want to assert themselves. I think it's dangerous to ignore that.
Many of the conservatives in California are still liberal by Texas standards. I grew up in the central valley and it's not nearly as hard right as people believe.
