Spain’s Supreme Court on Thursday struck down a national registry for tourist accommodation to combat illegal short-term rentals, ruling that the central government had overstepped its authority into areas controlled by the regions. The central government “lacks the authority to establish an exhaustive regulation of a national registry that overlaps with regional registries already in existence”, the court said in a statement. The ruling deals a blow to Socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez’s government, which has sought to tighten regulation of tourist rentals that are blamed for driving up housing costs in major cities by reducing the supply of long-term…

I recently talked to a marketer whose company added Claude to their org chart. Not as a joke, but as a real role, with defined responsibilities and a clear place in the workflow. I laughed at first, but the more I sat with it, the more it felt like a reflection of what’s already happening inside a lot of organizations, whether they’ve formally acknowledged it or not. According to McKinsey, 88% of organizations regularly use AI in at least one business function. It’s clear that AI isn’t sitting off to the side anymore. It’s being embedded in the work we…

The current contract with Caltech ends in 2028. NASA is opening up bids for who will run the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) once the contract with Caltech expires in 2028. This is a pretty big deal, as Caltech has run the program since its founding in 1936. The JPL actually predates NASA by over two decades. This doesn’t mean that Caltech is getting shut out. It just means that NASA is looking into other options.

The deal comes as something of a surprise, given his limited contribution over the past two years.Christensen has made just 23 appearances over the past two years, which have largely been blighted by injuries. The 30-year-old played only 515 minutes this season, but there were surprise reports in January that President Joan Laporta was keen to offer him a new deal. Manager Hansi Flick has spoken highly of Christensen in public too, but has been unable…

This year has been marked by the U.S. President Donald Trump’s aggressive approach to foreign policy. From the seizure of the Venezuelan president in January to the ongoing war in Iran, the U.S. government is unashamedly entering into a new era of American Imperialism.
