Either:
1.) A college-educated-20-something-year-old* who works in the Tech Industry Google, Facebook, Uber, JUUL... and, therefore, makes a direct impact on the quality of life in San Francisco, CA via:
a.) gentrification, b.) white-washing of local micro/cultures, c.) inflated & unsustainable housing market and prices
*Techies can, and overwhelmingly are, older than 20-something, however those 30yo+ techies oftentimes live outside of San Francisco proper- in the East & South Bays, where housing prices are not /as/ extreme as they are in the city.
/Techie is oftentimes used as a derogatory term. Techies do, actually, use the word to bash other techies who are on the extreme end of the "techie" spectrum./

1.) "...yeah, I mean, I'd love to invite Chad to the Art Gallery in Oakland on Friday, but I'm kind of embarrassed to be associated with a techie around my circle of artist-friends."
2.) "...and basically, I just wanted something in my life that was completely alien to the life I lived in Ohio, so I told Life to friggin yeet my yote-sack and just up and moved to San Francisco. Some of my friends work in tech and the endless possibilities for opportunity got me thinking- maybe this chapter of my life is when I transition from a 'Hipster' to a 'Techie,' maybe I'm a Techster? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. But, either way, at least I'll never be a Trust Fund Techie..."
