By bike… it depends!

The shared bicycle service that the Barcelona metropolitan area has launched, which arrived in Badalona just before the municipal elections, fails more than a fair shotgun. And I say this, despite, because I subscribed the first day, and because I have used it until, and I’m sorry, it has ceased to be a reliable service.

Restarting Badalona brings together experts from the public and private spheres to share the problem of access to housing and propose solutions

The participants have agreed that a metropolitan perspective is necessary to address the pending challenges in housing. The city of Badalona, with contributions such as that of the Restarting association, shows that it wants to be there when it comes to tackling metropolitan challenges, as explained by its president, Ferran Falcó.

Badalona: return to politics, please

El día que Línea me pidió un artículo sobre los resultados electorales en Badalona, pensé que podría hacer algo de historia y que era una ocasión para explicar algo que interesadamente continúa en el imaginario de algunos pequeños espacios políticos de Badalona. Y es que hay gente, todavía, que piensa que la “culpa” de los

A vision, a spoiler and a question: on the highway, what will we do and why

Badalona will bury the highway and make a city. Gone are 20 years of discussions about what to do, and the new government has rejected the proposal made by the Metropolitan Area to create a “metropolitan greenway” for, according to the mayor, “little ambitious”. The agreement of the Badalona City Council is a commitment to

Restarting Badalona organizes a debate session on the social challenge of making housing that will take place on June 9 at the Marina Badalona hotel

The price of the city

A person who works full-time should be paid enough to sustain themselves with dignity. Right now this is not the case. This is indicated by the study published by the AMB and the KSNET consultancy where the reference metropolitan salary (SMR) of the Barcelona metropolitan area (AMB) is calculated for 2022. This indicator puts figures

Artificial intelligence

A few weeks ago, Microsoft bought ChatGPT to integrate this Conversational artificial intelligence (AI) into its products. A Conversational AI is a software that you can ask anything, it looks for it on the internet, and it answers you. “ChapGPT, give me a 500-word essay on the industrial revolution for 4th ESO”. He does it

Public procurement

When a matter there are few who know its details, mine. When to do it you need laws, regulations, convoluted procedures and a multitude of reports in case things go wrong, my. And it is that in terms of public procurement, we are a scalded cat. For the abuses of the past, in the form

Giuseppina Giuliano o Josefina Julià: el cas de l’habitatge que tothom prometia i ningú feia

Ara fa vint anys, VINT, que al solar que l’Institut Català del Sòl té a l’antiga fàbrica de l’Estrella de Badalona hi vàrem prometre la construcció de 375 habitatges de protecció oficial. Fa 8 anys, VUIT, que es redacta el planejament de les Tres Xemeneies, que en preveu al voltant d’uns 400 d’aquesta tipologia. I
