Hey /g/
Is there a "wild west" of technology today?
In the US?
The other day I got transferred to a store in the shiny side of town, and a guy walked in saying he was an engineer in silicon valley during the 80's - he wouldn't stop yapping about cocaine interviews and pot-stankin offices, and his younger wife, who was a programmer or something.

After watching this series, I'm beginning to wonder if similarly hands-off working environments still exist.

Yes, Shenzhen.
>We examine the unique manufacturing ecosystem that has emerged, gaining access to the world’s leading hardware-prototyping culture whilst challenging misconceptions from the west. The film looks at how the evolution of “Shanzhai” – or copycat manufacturing – has transformed traditional models of business, distribution and innovation, and asks what the rest of the world can learn from this so-called “Silicon Valley of hardware".

On an unrelated note, Shenzhen I/O is a great game.
