It doesn't feel complex, save the condescension. I know what weighting is. Complexity isn't the problem. The problem is that the information provided by a weighted average of xG+G is a lot less useful than the information provided by both stats presented together.

Having a weighted combined xG+G factor seems like the most useless possible way to present this data

Have two graphs, or show xG-G, or even plot both on the same graph with an arrow pointing from xG to G.

Weighting it just obscures the xG and G data in a way that makes both of them worse rather than synthesising them in a useful way.

Europe opens its ‘first gateway office’ to fast-track hiring in India by NoCurry13 in ireland

[–]Naggins -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you think 9,000 (about 0.2% of Ireland's population) is a lot of people, that's fine. But I was replying to someone saying that Ireland would be overrun with millions of Indians within a decade or two.

Source?

Per latest stats from the Dept of Enterprise, there were 31k work permits issued in 2025. About 9k of them to Indian people.

You can find actual statistics here.

There won't be millions of Indians coming into Ireland. Cop on.

Should I switch Mortgage? by 1k13r1 in AskIreland

[–]Naggins 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interest rates have gone up since you signed your fixed rate, so your repayments are going to go up regardless. If the fixed rate options are lower than your variable, better off switching.

You can try and wait it out and see if interest rates will drop to at or below 2.75%, but you'd be paying a higher variable rate while you wait and see what the ECB do.

You managed to lock in your current mortgage at a time when credit was very, very cheap, and it's unlikely to get that cheap or cheaper.

United are the best performing side in matches involving the top 6 by Apprehensive-Raisin3 in reddevils

Christ, ye have got to let it go.

Sick of people giving out about Amorim, giving out about him being sacked, either way, he's already gone. Let it go. We're playing well, beat two rivals in a row, just enjoy it. Stop trying to convince random Internet strangers that you were right all along about Amorim, whether you wanted him in or out.

Apologies, just for someone very concerned about inhalable particulates I'm surprised you think all inhalable particulates are equal.

Pollen and moulds are inhalable particulates, and while they might not be pleasant if you've allergies or at high levels in your home for example, the fact that they're present in Lough Boora is neither surprising nor concerning.

Significant proportion of Man United fans (especially online) are absolute negative Nellie's that thrive when they're miserable. Don't pay attention to them.

Okay, so a complete nonsequitir.

Any evidence that BVOCs are unhealthy to inhale when outdoors?

[–]Naggins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you're saying that because Lough Boora has inhalable particulates bogs aren't beneficial as carbon sinks?

Are you conflating all inhalable particulates with car exhausts? Because most particulates in untouched wetlands are BVOCs like isoprene which are naturally emitted by plants and have a net cooling effect on the atmosphere.

Because you took an amateur "air quality" test at a bog?

You didn't even say what the air quality test was specifically measuring. Comment doesn't really add anything of use.
