A mythical University in Canada where many good Engineers and Computer Scientists come from.
Sam: "Where are all these Canadians from?"
Matthew: "We hired 10 interns and 20 full-times from Waterloo. They get shit done because if we don't hire them, they'll have to work for Blackberry."

@orien No what are you talking about

@SingleCommaClub It's similar to what you see from immigrants to a new country like US or Canada

I have a lot of friends from canada and waterloo and this seems really accurate from what i've heard

It's like a parallel universe of Silicon Valley where people speak American English...

@SingleCommaClub That's not true at all. Pretty much everyone I know from my graduating class got offers from US companies. A significant proportion of students choose to stay because the region is booming right now, and also the quality of life in Canada is pretty high.

@freefunctor toronto and canada are awesome

Have worked with a lot of engineers from Waterloo through internships and full time. Can honestly say they are very talented, but there is a bias because all the ones that make it to US companies are generally top notch.
