@dubcitycouncil.bsky.social @janetphorner.bsky.social any idea why about 1/3 of Smithfield square has become a fenced off truck park since Friday evening? When there is a festival on the square residents are consulted but nothing for this. Are they paying for it at least!

This might be the definition of niche but does anyone know why Montenegro are producing so much wind energy in the last two weeks? They're constantly near the top of the Wind Europe leaderboard lately after rarely featuring. #WindEnergy @windeurope.bsky.social

12 years after a primary school was planned for Grangegorman D7 (on the TU Dublin campus), 5 years since construction started, 3 years since the school opened and the temporary barriers were put in place, still nothing has been done with the open space in front of the Educate Together Grangegorman

love to use LinkedIn job search, i'd be better off using craigslist or something (this is with promoted jobs blocked, so these are all meant to actually match my search)

search results for "data scientist Dublin" on LinkedIn, the top result is "Section Leader - Bassoon, RTE concert orchestra" and the last is "Site Foreman", none of the results include "Data" or "Scientist"

My current bugbear (especially after the attack yday in Munich) is how unprotected some of Dublin's pedestrian areas are from cars, especially Capel & Henry St on the northside. Someone could drive across 700m of busy pedestrianised street and the only barrier would be a few rubber bollards! #Dublin
