It does make sense though, since Texas Instruments and various computer companies were based there, which is the same reason Silicon Valley got its name.&lt;p&gt;If anything, Austin is more deserving of the &amp;quot;Silicon X&amp;quot; moniker than the Bay Area, as TI invented the silicon transistor and the integrated circuit.</text><parent_chain><item><author>pm90</author><text>Its a lazy way to jump on the SV bandwagon.

It’s not an “offshoot” of Silicon Valley. It’s a distant, unrelated region that happens to also have a tech industry. Are Austin, Seattle, and Portland also “offshoots” of Silicon Valley? How about New York? Zurich?</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Hype and plunder: Domo a new low for self-indulgent IPOs</title><url>http://www.latimes.com/business/hiltzik/la-fi-hiltzik-domo-ipo-20180604-story.html</url></story>

After the dot-can boom and bust it now has the “like Silicon Valley but ‘weirder’” connotation.</text><parent_chain><item><author>pm90</author><text>Its a lazy way to jump on the SV bandwagon.
