At least in terms of non-SV locations, it's kind of hard to find more than a few companies looking for rails devs / data engineers. And I'm sure there are companies working on inte…

I'm actually in Barcelona at the moment, and it's definitely been easy to walk around, but that could also be because the touristy areas near the ocean are very dense, and day to d…

Interesting about the north and south discrepancies where they say that property is more valuable on the north side of town. I was just thinking about this in terms of how cities a…
