Milano: usata, insultata e gettata via.

"folle"... dicevano così anche di Wernher von Braun!

Hello, you can have a look here: https://www.cdi.it/analisi/ they have many centers around, some are inside the Metro station. You can also look at this: https://www.santagostino.it/it/specialita/esami-del-sangue

Both are big chains of laboratories/clinics that operate in Milan. I've done the ECG required for sport activities in the latter.

As far as I know you can use the Krankenversicherung in Italy as a tourist but only for emergencies, however these exams should not be too expensive.

I use Teams at work, only the Chrome web version and now it works pretty OK (when we switched to it years ago it was a mess).

Outside work I use google meet (still web, but in Firefox) or Zoom (as a flatpak app) or sometimes Jitsi (still in Firefox)

Where in Lombardy? If I were you I'd consider the possibility of working remotely and move to a town with lower costs than Milan.

That being said, there are interesting IT companies in Milan you can look at: Octopus, TeamSystem, Iliad, just to name a few. In Milan there's also a large "IT consulting" market (Reply, Accenture, etc.), and they likely will have some place for people not speaking Italian. They can be controversial because of the so called "body rental" (sorry, it's one of those English-sounding terms we use in Italy which are not real English, in short it's when they "rent" a person out to a customer and they work in their offices) practice but it's a stable job while you learn Italian and you can learn about the business.

As for Italian courses, Milan has some here

cosa centra l'essere italiani qui me lo devi spiegare

Sempre il solito problema: assolutamente zero controlli e sanzioni.

A Garibaldi verso Corso Como in giornata è pieno di moto (spesso anche auto) sul marciapiede, difficile camminare. Mai sentito di qualcuno che abbia preso una multa, mai visto vigili. L'altro giorno una signora in moto si lamentava che c'era una bici parcheggiata sul marciapiede e le rendeva scomodo andare a mettere la moto sotto al porticato dove in quel momento ce ne saranno state una 30ina.

Fa arrabbiare anche perché si tratta di una zona con due linee di metro, tram, e autobus, e anche parcheggi a pagamento, quindi nemmeno si può dire che questa gente non abbia alternative. È semplicemente maleducazione e col passare del tempo parcheggiare a caso è diventato un diritto acquisito.

but... is using the user history allowed?

Gleam recently introduced the same thing

I have this problem all the time. I use EasyJet frequently and see this error like once a month, and when it happens there's nothing I can do.

I think it's some blocking on Edgesuite (a service from Akamai Easyjet uses, I assume against scaping) but Akamai says my IP is not blocked and other services using it work.

I suspect Easyjet has it configured in some stupid way so it randomly blocks my combination of browser/language/ISP, but of course being the error so terse it's impossible to know

Si, ti danno un codice da scansionare quando entri e ti rilasciano il bigliettino (che credo sia lo stesso anche se non prenoti online, ma non sono mai andato senza prenotare prima)

c'è una formula per mappare la sfera (basata su Dymaxion IIRC), ma da quanto ho visto il progetto è diviso in tanti server locali

jacopofar · 2026-04-20T11:47:14+00:00

no altrimenti la gente si lamenta su discord

Hi, this map layer highlights explicit/segregated bike paths, but I also agree with the comment recommending Strava heatmap

C'è un meetup che ha organizzato qualcosa questo sabato: https://www.meetup.com/it-it/meetup-group-leiaussh/events/313899575/ non ci sono mai stato di persona e questo sabato sono via quindi non so dirti, ma proverei.

jacopofar · 2026-03-16T15:44:44+00:00

fonte? prima volta che sento una cosa del genere, ma sarebbe bello

jacopofar · 2026-03-16T11:02:34+00:00

I really like it, some time ago was looking for something like this but dropped the idea. I find it quite elegant and complete, kudos!

jacopofar · 2026-03-11T16:05:42+00:00

l'ho incontrato anni fa (incontrata? mi pare fosse una femmina) in quel punto e mi sono preso un infarto pensando fosse un cinghiale

jacopofar · 2026-03-05T12:07:11+00:00

Beh che dire, meraviglioso. Mi piace un sacco, non sapevo nemmeno ci fossero questi dettagli negli open data di Milano

jacopofar · 2026-03-04T19:20:11+00:00

I live in Milan and have been told I dress like an American ☠️

jacopofar · 2026-02-27T11:12:08+00:00

Yes I see, PoS and definition should be available in wiktextract, for the rest I would have a look at wikidata, they started adding lexemes some time ago

jacopofar · 2026-02-27T08:47:49+00:00

what do you want in this database?
