Boston tech firm relocates to St. Pete, continues evolving

St. Petersburg’s reputation as a burgeoning technology hub continues attracting national innovation leaders, including a formerly Boston-based entrepreneur who launched an artificial intelligence-fueled bookkeeping platform Wednesday.

Botkeeper has provided automated bookkeeping solutions for accounting firms since 2015. Enrico Palmerino, founder and CEO, said the goal was always to incorporate artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning into its software as the technology matured.

Solar eclipse to be visible from bay area Monday

A cross-section of the United States, from Texas to main, will be directly underneath Monday’s total solar eclipse, a celestial phenomenon during which the Moon passes directly between Earth and the Sun, completely obscuring (for about three minutes) its light. Those states experiencing complete darkness, and a drop in temperature, are in what scientists call “the path of totality.”

Florida, unfortunately, is far south and east of this path, making the total eclipse unviewable. It will, however, be possible to observe a partial eclipse, about 60 percent, from parts of the Sunshine State, including the Tampa Bay Area.
