@nprofile…yz28 Vox racism is a bit… schizophrenic.
They are laser-focused on attacking Arabs and African people, but see Latin American people as a more civilised second-class citizens. My guess is that they know that some latam people can be converted into Vox votes.

Being an immigrant long enough is seeing the waves of people displacement.
In the bubble of tech people I live, in the past the default option was to go to Germany, Netherlands or Portugal. Then later people that went to Germany gave up of it and started moving to Spain.
Now that the Portuguese government has ceded space to the fascist party and tightened some rules, people are choosing… Spain.

@nprofile…cg79 The thing is that Barcelona doesn’t have that much free space for building anymore, and when there is some it is for high-luxurious building (I have just seen a website for a new building in Glories that will even have a fuckin’ sauna!)
imo, what they are doing of giving public areas to build affordable houses are good and a right step, but it won’t solve that problem if the city becoming a playground.
Ourselves here are being pushed outside of the city, buying an apartment that even for our standards are not that cheap and will be barely above the water as well.

For some years, my generation in Brasil grew up buying imported stuff (mainly electronics and computers) that were smuggled from Paraguay, where people could buy it way cheaper than direct import. Everyone remembers stories of people taking the bus, crossing the border with stuffed bags and praying to don’t be stopped by the police.
Now I am waiting for the US people to start doing the same and crossing the Mexico and Canada borders.

Interesting. In a developer’s bubble I am in, some reports that the companies are deploying LLMs internally instead of paying for the ChatGPT and others.
That’s a trend I thought would happen. Probably cheaper, easy to handle than negotiating a contract every year, more privacy and you can train it with the companies internal stuff.

@nprofile…cg79 I’d not say that. So many developers are used to just write code, to just pass interviews with whiteboard and leetcode, but so few that can actually _work_: think beyond their scope, taking more considerations, discussing with non-developers.
Writing code and hammering solutions is the easiest part. Developers that just keep commenting “change this single line for optimization” are dead.
