Their website looks like a poorly designed lifestyle blog

Montessori from age 6 to 15.

- Self paced learning and choosing how to spend your time

- Need to collaborate with your peers on scarce resources (everyone can't read the same book / solve the same challenge at the same time)

- Small classes, no one could get away with anything/bullying

- Responsibility for completing the weekly plan yourself and being rewarded for hard work ("the diligence light is well lit" sticker you got when sharing your weekly progress - sry poorly translated Swedish"

Three years ago I booked a flight to San Juan (SJU), Puerto Rico by mistake. I was supposed to go to San Jose (SJO) in Costa Rica.

I will never forget the moment I read "SJO" in the email realizing I should have booked a flight to "SJU". Then going into Google, and typing SJO to find out where I was actually flying. I was prepared for it to be in Asia, Africa or anywhere. Luckily, Puerto Rico was just a small detour to Costa Rica (flew from Europe) :-)

Why not run Linux?

Big, incumbent non-SW company (Kodak example) being challenged by start-up to Big, software incumbent (Salesforce) with massive developer resources being challenged by start-up.

Maybe the strategies need to change - perhaps increasingly partnering with the software incumbents (if you can't beat 'em, join 'em).. Maybe someone can add some insight..?

Absolutely, unfortunately taylorism did follow suit into the world of knowledge workers.

In some hostile work environments like banking this is everywhere. Don't leave before your manager, eat lunch at your desk, look busy and stay in the office as long as you can

And I have to change time everytime my watch has been laying still two days...

Imagine ride-sharing companies bidding for different drivers in real-time where drivers would set their minimum fare.

Yes, having lived in Barcelona for 2 years I can confirm that.

Winter was the best time there

I wonder how many solutions within the AI field could just be categorized as "Automation"

Dogs have owners, cats have staff :)
