End of discussion.
Pittsburgh is always going to be 1983 to Kat.

You know, it's funny! I lived there longer than Crazi, and I lived there as an adult, which he has not, as far as I can tell. I have family there and have had so consistently since the 1870s. My links to the salaries are very current. Tell me what's wrong with what I posted, instead of dumping on me, K?

Seems like another arbitrary article...
But Carnegie Melon. They're a world leader in robotics. The whole reason Uber set up their self-driving research center in Pittsburgh was just to be close to Carnegie Melon, share resources and poach talent.

That's pretty remarkable company for Pittsburgh to keep given its size. Good stuff.

The list is actually in no order, so Pittsburgh didn't necessarily beat out SF.

BTW, try your calculator for Birmingham, AL or Los Alamos, NM. Post it.
Why? Those places don't matter at all to this discussion and are never compared to Pittsburgh.
