Silicon Valley grows up: Tech industry matures, stabilizes
Silicon Valley has long been the kind of place where offices have slides, khakis are formalwear and the hottest companies in town spell their names in big, multicolored letters.

It’s the kind of place where a young industry — one constantly flinging itself into boom-and-bust cycles while chasing the next big thing — thrives.
Except now, there are signs that tech is maturing — possibly even approaching middle age.
Gulp.
