That's not the last Blockbuster in the world. There's one near me in Rome.

- oh_sigh 8y agoThat's been closed for a while now...peek in the windows and see the desolation...what do you do in Rome? Not a native Italian but I left because of lack of tech scene(among other things)
- chpmrc 8y agoVery much off topic but being in the process of choosing a "base" in the EU I'm curious to know where you ended up living, that has a good tech scene.
- simonh 8y agoI have friends in Berlin that like it a lot. Amsterdam is doing pretty well too, a bunch of high frequency trading outfits moved there from London over the last few years because of the talent pool. I think Copenhagen has a decent scene, but I’ve no direct connections there. I’m in London and there’s plenty of work but the finance and telecoms industries suck up most of the top talent.
- oh_sigh 8y agoDue to my dual nationality, I had all of the US to (easily) choose from as well as the EU, so I actually ended up in NYC. The income differential as a senior software engineer was just too great to consider staying in the EU
- klez 8y ago> what do you do in Rome I babysit a couple of WebSphere instances running on iSeries hardware, mainly. They call it DevOps, for some reason...
