This is pretty good, nice work! I think you're spot on that sometimes you just need a simpler overview of info.
One thing I've noticed is that the first line under the drug name, I guess is the category? Some of them are probably a bit more specific than they need to be, like ibuprofen: https://muler.pythonanywhere.com/Ibuprofen
You could take the summary from DrugBank instead of a category, but that might have other issues too.
Either way, I'll probably come back and use this in the future!
Yeah the category is taken directly from the Drugbank dataset, which can be rather specific and arbitrary. I'll see if there's a summary like you suggest that I could use instead.
Yeah I think you're spot on with everything. I think some change in direction is needed for the long term but it's something we are not really seeing which is concerning.
The well known MNCs seem to be here largely in an operational capacity, the majority of their workforce would be something like trust/risk/support/finance/sales. In terms of "R&D" and "innovation", work that develops the products and services that are sold, I see very little of that happening in Ireland. Yet these companies have huge engineering and product teams in London which are still growing, and the fact they're not placed here is rather telling. For sure we've benefited from the presence of these MNCs so far, but for it to be more sustainable and for the economy to mature further I think we need to be looking to become a country that's attractive beyond being an operational base.
Admittedly not too familiar with the hardware R&D work going on here, I know Intel is largely manufacturing with a bit of development from things like the purchase of Movidius.
For the software side, what are those R&D departments actually working on? Would you really say it's R&D and product development? From what I can see, both from my own experience and from job posts, most of the engineering jobs are themselves operations related (SRE, infrastructure, customer support). I wasn't saying we don't have engineering roles in Ireland, but what we do have are not prime roles in terms of the companies products and services, and we should be looking to grow beyond facilitating company operations.
I can only speak for myself, but I’m in a group of ≈50 working on prime software R&D (as you term it) in a very trendy space in Dublin for a large multinational. I don’t want to say too much beyond that - and you’re probably right that it’s the exception rather than the rule - but it does exist.
If you work where I think you work (Irish founded company, office is about as central as you can get in Dublin) it's a great example of the type of thing we need more of! I really do think it's the exception unfortunately, even within the other parts of the multinational here.
You can create rules to hide something by right-clicking on the page and choosing 'Block an element', or by adding a rule like justwatch.com##.consent-banner in your filter parameters.
I think rather than having a playground, you should just put some sample nodes / lists in the Organizing section that people can delete later if they want to. As an example Notion (https://www.notion.so/) populates your workspace with examples from the start, with mock data filled in. That way you can click around with existing data, see how it works, and delete it if you don't want it.
I'm trying to see how the memorize function works and because I have no entries in Organising it won't work. I see there's examples in Playground but I can't see what they look like when trying to Memorize. I spent a few minutes trying to work out if it's possible which was pretty frustrating, and it looks like it isn't, and if it is possible then I have no idea how to do it. Having to invest time into creating realistic mock questions is a pain when there are some right there but just out of reach. The Playground is essentially just Workflowy and doesn't let you experience the rest of the app, it's not a good experience.
That being said, I really like this idea as this reflects how I used to organise a lot of my notes. I'll definitely give it a shot and look forward to see how it progresses.
Thanks for the advice. I didn't know that people would want to see how things actually appear in the Memorizing part. What you suggested (putting data that can be deleted into the Organizing part) sounds very good.
This is really good. I've tried time tracking apps before and the UI was usually a pain trying to categorize things, this feels almost intuitive. Do you've the code for this up on github or anything? Would be cool to customise it and dig into something like exporting the data.
The tax section is incredibly misleading. For Ireland, the 12.5% tax rate is corporation tax, not for individuals. The effective income tax rate in Ireland for dev level salaries is 40%+, after a point your marginal tax rate becomes 52%.
Quickly looking into it, all the tax rates look like the corporation tax. The graph is blatantly wrong across the board.
