Technology — a classification, not a measurement. An on-box language model (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-FP8, prompt version 1) read this channel’s own recent posts on 26 September 2026 and assigned it the closest of 31 fixed categories, at 62% confidence. This is a model’s judgement about what the channel is likely to be about, not a fact this register measured the way a subscriber count or a view count is measured — it can be revised on a later pass, and it carries no weight anywhere else on this page. How this classification works, and why it has no browse page of its own yet.

17 posts held, back to 19 March 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 page of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 17 posts for this entry, the most recent from 29 July 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.
5 reactions across 2 posts, in 2 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 60.0% of them.
| Reaction | Count | Share | Share, drawn |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🙏 | 3 | 60.0% | |
| 👍 | 2 | 40.0% |
No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 2 of the 17 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 5 reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 17 most recent posts we hold, published 19 March 2026 to 29 July 2026, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.
Throwing a small night at Levö on August 12. Wine, art, a little garden out back. Nothing fancy, just people worth meeting. Already past 60 signups and it's a tiny room, so it might fill up. It's on Luma: https://link.worktugal.com/levo-aug12
Stripe shipped 288 products at Sessions 2026 in April. The company's biggest launch ever. All of it is payment infrastructure for AI agents: agentic commerce, per-token billing via stablecoins, fraud protection for AI sign-up abuse. One in six sign-up attempts on AI services running on Stripe is fraudulent right now. The engineering teams in Dublin and across EMEA are building the defences. 474 open roles globally a…
Datadog just crossed $1 billion in quarterly revenue. 32% growth. Most of it came from AI observability products built in Paris. Right now they have 35 open roles in Paris. Senior LLM engineers earn up to €170,000. Two to three times the French market rate. French Tech Visa sponsored. Passeport Talent permit, valid four years, processed in two to four weeks. The catch: three days on-site. Not advisory. If you are n…
Databricks is expanding its EU engineering footprint — London, Berlin, Amsterdam, Munich. Staff engineers in London can reach £263,804 total comp (~€308K). Berlin software engineers average €132,820. Most roles require relocation. No remote from Portugal for core engineering roles. Visa sponsorship available for senior positions but not guaranteed. Open-source moat: Delta Lake, Unity Catalog, MLflow are widely adop…
ElevenLabs is hiring 141 roles across Europe and Portugal is on the eligibility list. The company raised $500M at an $11B valuation in February. ARR is $330M. Their voices are in Deutsche Telekom, Revolut, Meta, and Epic Games. Polish founders, heading toward IPO. For Portugal-based candidates: they use an Employer of Record model, not a direct entity. 16 roles list Portugal explicitly, including engineering and cr…
Mistral AI is hiring 161 roles in Europe. Salaries up to €165K. Portugal is not in any of them. 103 roles in Paris, 47 in London. The company raised $3.1B and is targeting €1B ARR in 2026. Every engineering salary clears the D8 threshold by double. Only 5 roles are explicitly remote in the EU. No Portugal entity. Same gap as GitLab. If you are in Paris or London, this is one of the best technical roles in European…
GitLab: 174 open EU roles, salaries to €218,000 in Germany. The catch: no legal entity in Portugal. Their policy is clear. They only hire where they have an entity. Ireland, UK, Germany, Netherlands, France, Spain are covered. Portugal is not. If you're in any of those countries, GitLab is one of the best remote-first employers in tech. All-remote since 2011. 3.9/5 work-life balance on Glassdoor. Full EU entity ma…
Anthropic is hiring 65 people in London and Dublin with salaries up to £630k. Visa sponsorship confirmed. But remote from Portugal is not an option. Breakdown of roles, salary bands, and interview process: blog.worktugal.com/anthropic-hiring-europe-2026/
Heads up, citizenship update. The new law was signed May 3, and the 5-year path is gone. But the Constitutional Court made a split ruling. If your application was already decided, you're protected. Your AIMA wait time counts. If you haven't filed yet, the new law applies. Your AIMA wait time will not count. Good news: permanent residency is still 5 years. Your visa is still valid.

Portugal's citizenship law just changed. Here's what actually happened. Parliament approved a new Nationality Law on April 1st. A lot of panic is going around. Most of it is wrong. The short version: Getting a Portuguese passport just got much harder. Your right to live here didn't change. The 5-year citizenship timeline is now 10 years for most people (7 for EU and CPLP nationals). The clock now starts from your…
Your AIMA approval came through. The card is taking weeks. Here's what actually covers you while you wait, what to do if CTT failed to deliver it, and how to escalate if it's been months with no movement. New article: https://blog.worktugal.com/aima-residence-card-delay-portugal/ Key points: - Proof of Approval covers you inside Portugal. Not at borders. Airlines can deny boarding. - CTT return? Check spam in the …

EU passport gets you into Portugal. It does not register you. CRUE by day 120 at your Câmara Municipal (not AIMA). NISS after that. SNS separately. IRS from day one. IFICI deadline January 15 the year after you arrive — and NHR is dead, so don't assume you can still apply. Most EU citizens find out about these gaps 6 months in, sometimes later. Full checklist in the correct order: https://blog.worktugal.com/eu-cit…
Showing the 12 most recent of 17 posts we hold for @worktugal. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
A live page changes as we take new readings, so a citation should name the measurement it is based on, not just the URL. The line below cites the subscriber count as measured 30 September 2026 — this entry's latest reading, not the date you are reading this.
