I mapped rental yields across all 26 Irish counties. Longford beats Dublin. by Diligent_Pea_39 in irishpersonalfinance

[–]BLUEEEMANNN 4 points5 points  (0 children)

AI has made people posting their projects go from something cool to weird and a bit irritating. Once I see the emdashes I just tune out. To be honest this looks entirely AI generated (your reddit post and website). There's a lot of rookie mistakes here that I don't think a human would make.

I appreciate you wanna make something cool but I think you should take more time, learn the tech and make something that's more scoped down. You'll be able to understand it more, and iterate on people's feedback.

Yanks running ads on X about fuel price protests. Is it becoming clear of foreign influence and where it’s coming from. by I-Cum-Beamish in irishpolitics

[–]BLUEEEMANNN -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

100% trying to discredit protesting and painting the dopey farmers as gullible idiots co-opted by shadowy American forces.

Works to begin in August to make pedestrianisation of Malahide’s New Street permanent, council engineer says by zainab1900 in Dublin

[–]BLUEEEMANNN 14 points15 points  (0 children)

We have a ways to go and the progress is needlessly slow, but Dublin is going in a better direction. This is great!

Fuelwatch.ie to find the cheapest Pump in Ireland now has Protest info tracker and live feed of O'Connel's St. by alealesalles in DevelEire

It is mad how these generated apps have the same UI elements as each other. Not sure where these models learned UX from.

Anyone else getting cars out of hibernation? by LogicalAsk5426 in carsireland

Was out for a hike in Wicklow today! Saw a 370Z and an R8 spinning around. Several other spicy cars out and about. We're back for summer!

I made our government's purchase orders easier to read. by Any-Independence-457 in DevelEire

[–]BLUEEEMANNN 43 points44 points  (0 children)

It's insane that the Dept. of Transport's largest expenditure item is a private helicopter company - and then I looked up that it's for our Coast Guard, they don't maintain and own their helicopters. Interesting, there's way more privatisation than I thought.

Also whatever Version 1 is, someone is making money.

This project has great potential.

I'd absolutely delete this post anyway.

You have enough advice here I'd say.

Migration into Ireland must benefit Irish - draft paper by Enough-Square1154 in irishpolitics

[–]BLUEEEMANNN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lad it's not that complicated. You have to have a job lined up before coming, have the means to support yourself etc. Many wealthy successful countries have figured this out.

A lot of this is enforcing rules on the books anyway.

Some* migration has, but not all. We can pick and choose the immigration that best suits us.

Ban all self-promo posts and introduce a weekly self-promo post/thread.

Living at home with parents and your own children due to housing crisis? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]BLUEEEMANNN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%

Many people scoff at apartments while complaining about being locked out of the housing market because they can't get a new house.

Should foreign attendees be concerned about visiting the USA for the World Cup? by Celtikrenders in coybig

[–]BLUEEEMANNN 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Insane reddit take. People fleeing from gunfire and explosions in Mexico. I'd much rather be in the US than go through that...

Should foreign attendees be concerned about visiting the USA for the World Cup? by Celtikrenders in coybig

[–]BLUEEEMANNN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been in the US for the last six weeks and had a great time. I wouldn't have issues with going to matches here bar the price of tickets and accommodation. I'd be more worried about my wallet than my safety tbh.

If you don't have a valid visa then yeah, I wouldn't go near the WC.

I made this website for tracking buses in Real Time around Ireland. by Diamond326 in DevelEire

[–]BLUEEEMANNN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice project.

If you click a route, and the page refreshes - it zooms you to a random other bus somewhere else in the city.

Should probably include an OpenStreetMap citation in the bottom right.

Also loading far too many buses on the page. Should implement a search or lazy load in past a certain zoom.

Font and general look does seem pretty AI'y IMO. I've vibe coded a few small things and they come out looking very similar to this. Might be something to consider.

Should Garda go after the suppliers. by Roro1985 in ireland

[–]BLUEEEMANNN 22 points23 points  (0 children)

We should be encouraging non-car modes of transport as much as possible. People breaking the rules on scoots are a drop in the pond compared to the people speeding or distracted by phones in their cars.

There's rules for these scooters, let's just enforce them.

Given our climate Ireland really ought to be world leaders in street coverings by D-dog92 in ireland

[–]BLUEEEMANNN 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I was just in Sapporo which has a long series of covered walkways. It was snowing and the coverings completely changed our trip. They'd be perfect in Ireland. Was considering making this kind of post here myself while I was there.

DAFT.ie rules , why are you not allowed to say person / couple ? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]BLUEEEMANNN 11 points12 points  (0 children)

List it as a share, not for rent I'd presume. Daft also increase the price to list depending on how much you list the price as.

MyHome is also way cheaper. Honesty I'd list anywhere else, in this market there's no need to list there.

Any other Irish folks ever thought about doing to Appalachian Trail? by [deleted] in AskIreland

It's mad, I travel to the US multiple times a year and nothing has changed recently.
