This is awesome - and I love the look. Can you add England/Europe listings? :)

I think this is great, and the next frontier is to analyze how well calls can be handled by a local model. Realistically, to do that usefully requires response time as a new dimension of judging: Can a local model provide an acceptably accu

I have some experience in this situation. About 20 years ago, I transitioned from employee to consultant. I do IT projects like fractional or temporary CTO in smaller organizations. I do projects that last from 6 to 18 months, and in each o

As an expat, in modern usage, I have observed this as a US vs. Europe (or maybe vs. ROW) issue. In the US, IT is like networking and helpdesk, and in Europe, it is more the whole hw-sw-networking-development mass.

No, it actually does very well by that measure. Nothing needless to cooking is heated.

Anecdotally, rents rose in St. Antoni when the superblock was established.

Actually the density is so great that lots of blocks have a bakery, and most have a convenience store, and usually several kinds of other shops, like clothing or stationery. I was amazed that there were two model train shops within 10 minut

My ZX81 memory: I took the T to the Sinclair administrative office in Boston to buy a super-early one with cash money. I had pre-flighted the transaction by phone, but it was still a strange thing for the office to do a retail transaction -

It's strange to characterize investment amount in terms of income. I think relative to assets or investment portfolio would be clearer.

I went to that museum last summer and I spent 90% of my visit at exhibits related to it. It's super cool, and well-presented, IMO.

OMG that is such genius. Chilling. Love it.

Looks like they are starting with the popular BTRFS, and then making the pun of this being "better," and also implying the Be tree data structure they use. I bet it's intended to be pronounced "Better Eff Ess."

Wow, look at the previous post on that site, from the same guy: "They are rigging elections, they are botching troop withdrawals to flood western countries with refugees, the American border is being invaded by hundreds of thousands of

The people OP is talking about are ones who are not computer literate. Those people can be of any age. There's just no reason at all to related it to age.

"Very elderly" != "older" (folks). People of all ages vary in their IT abilities, and IT abilities are obviously what matters in dealing with issues like backup. There's just no reason to bring up age at all.

Your casual substitution of "older folks" for "people with no IT knowledge" is ageist ignorance.

I have lived in Barcelona for about four years, and have followed Superblock development closely. Last Friday, I visited the site in the St. Antoni area. It was awesome to see the former intersection filled with people. They were seated, st
