Frustration At St Flannan's College As Bus Shelter Funding Proves Elusive

Staff and students of an Ennis secondary school are expressing disappointment as plans for a bus shelter appear to have hit a dead end. After engagements with Clare County Council, the National Transport Authority and the Department of Education, there remains no clear funding stream for the much requested piece of infrastructure. Roughly two years ago, the Student Council of St Flannan's College made it known to school management that a bus shelter had been identified as a priority project by the student body which currently numbers 1,280. Those who avail of a school bus service at St Flannan's currently have to wait on the footpath beside the school gates on Cusack Road which although sheltered by trees has no protection from the elements. Leaving Cert student Brendan O'Halloran, who sits on the Student Council, says it deters people from wanting to get the bus. After becoming aware of the problem, the school's principal, Father Ignatius McCormack, wrote to the National Transport Authority to request the installation of a bus shelter. Having been told the matter wasn't within the authority's remit, he then contacted the Department of Education but this effort also proved fruitless as he was informed there's no designated funding stream for such a project. Clare County Council was the next port of call in the school's bid to secure funding and a meeting was held between a school official, an Ennis Municipal District engineer and a Department of Education representative to this end in November 2024. This meeting heard however that the local authority has no responsibility for the provision of a bus shelter at the location as the bus stop isn't publicly used. Father McCormack is remaining hopeful Clare County Council will fund the project. Exploring another avenue, the Student Council recently contacted Clarecastle Fine Gael Councillor Paul Murphy who subsequently raised the matter at a recent meeting of Ennis Municipal District. A response from a Senior Engineer reiterated the view that such a development is the responsibility of either the school itself or the Department of Education. Councillor Murphy believes engaging with the Department to be the most viable way of progressing the project. A recent survey conducted by the Student Council has found that over 300 students at St Flannan's get the bus which accounts for over a quarter of its enrolment. Student Council member Aoibheann O'Dwyer insists if schools want to make travelling bus more appealing, the right infrastructure must be in place.

In The Space Business is... – the podcast series of The Space Business is Everywhere campaign, underwritten by ST Engineering iDirect – we take a look at the way the commercial space industry has spread itself to parts of the world where space and satellites were once only read about or dreamed of. Each episode will focus on a specific location and features an innovator who is shaping - and reshaping - the industry. In the third episode, we hear from two “20 Under 35” honorees from the Bahrain National Space Agency: Aysha Alharam, Chief Satellite Design Department and Yaqoob Alqassab, Space Engineering Specialist. Aysha Alharam is Chief Satellite Design Department for the National Space Science Agency (NSSA) of Bahrain. She began her career in 2018 when she was selected as one of the nine first members of the Bahrain Space Team, a position that had over 4,000 other applicants. As the first Bahraini space engineer leading the team, Aysha served as project manager, idea innovator and software developer for the “Aman” payload project, which won the prestigious Payload Hosting Initiative – organized by the United Nations Office of Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) and Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Center (MBRSC) in 2022 – out-competing space agencies, companies, universities and research centers from over 100 countries. The Aman payload project showcases Eng, which focuses on securing satellite data through a novel cybersecurity encryption algorithm based on FPGA and parallel processing technology. Aysha personally developed the idea of the AI-based image processing system that will be onboard the first Bahraini satellite, “AlMunther,” the first of its kind in the Middle East region. She completed her education with two Masters degrees, one in Electrical and Computer Engineering with a concentration in space technology from Khalifa University in the UAE and one in Information Technology and Computer Science from the University of Bahrain. Yaqoob Alqassab is a Space Engineering Specialist at the Bahrain National Space Science Agency (NSSA). He joined NSSA in 2019 as a Senior Engineer and was promoted to his current position in 2024 in recognition of his dedication and impressive job performance. Yaqoob has cultivated a diverse skillset, including expertise in satellite engineering, Attitude Determination and Control Subsystem (ADCS) programming, structural and thermal analyses, system analysis and mission analysis. While working for NSSA, Yaqoob developed the first Bahraini software in space for ADCS as part of his work on Light-1, a 3U CubeSat designed to detect Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flashes and the first joint project between Bahrain and the UAE. Yaqoob contributed significantly to the launch of DhabiSat, a 2U CubeSat created to test novel ADCS algorithms in space, for which he served as both an ADCS software programmer and structural integrity analyst. He also worked on AlMunther, a 3U CubeSat aimed at capturing medium-resolution images of Bahrain and testing Bahraini AI and cybersecurity innovations in space. He completed his Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Bahrain and his Master's Degree in Mechanical Engineering from Khalifa University.

In this episode, Dave and Jamison answer these questions: A listener named Steven says, Long-time listener of the podcast here—it always brings me so much joy! Should I prioritize title over salary? I'm currently based in Europe, working as a Senior Engineer at a big company that pays really well. The problem is, there's almost no chance for promotion due to the economy and budget constraints. Plus, because of the organizational structure, I'm stuck solving small problems that don't have a big impact. It's frustrating—but again, the pay is great. Recently, I got an offer for a Staff Engineer position at another company. The catch is, the pay isn't as good (30%+ cut), and I'm not sure about their culture or structure yet. However, the title could potentially open more doors for me in the future. Should I take the offer, accept the pay cut, and hope it's a step forward for my career? Hello! Long time listener, first-time caller :-) I'm on the final stretch of classes to finish my BS in computer science at WGU, most of which I've done while working. I'm now 40, and I have had 3 previous occupations and employers: aircraft mechanic for 5 years at a small shop, figure skater with Disney on Ice for 6 years, and most recently a partner at an environmental remediation/heavy construction firm for 10 years where my primary responsibilities were field crew management and technical writing for ecology reports. I would love your advice on how I could use these experiences to stand out on a resume or in a job interview. How can I indicate that I'm a hard worker and that I know just enough to know that I know nothing and am ready to learn? Thank you for your time, keep up the good work!

Clare County Council has called for the implementation of a large scale plan to address the countywide issue of the proximity of trees to broadband cables and parts of the electricity grid. It comes ahead of the release of the local authority's review of the multiagency response to Storm Éowyn and its aftermath. A rigid proposal involving the removal and cutting back of trees within 10 metres of electricity poles received widespread support when proposed at this week's meeting of the county's elected representatives. In response to the motion, Senior Engineer, Cyril Feeney, says the local authority does have power under the Roads Act to remove roadside trees, however, this does not extend to private property. Prior to the removal of any roadside trees, consultancy with the relevant utility company would also be required, to establish responsibility for doing so. Whitegate Councillor Pat Burke, says the planning processes for broadband installation and construction of new houses needs to be reviewed. Meanwhile, a separate motion has been put forward, requesting the council to call on the government to implement an aid scheme for the installation of generators for personal use during future storms. Ennis Councillor, Pat Daly, says people need to be better prepared with storms starting to become more frequent.

Tech giant Panasonic has converted its 50-year-old microwave production facility in Cardiff, Wales, to operate entirely on renewable energy. This project, the company's first in Europe, integrates solar, hydrogen fuel cells, and battery storage to power the factory sustainably. Inside, workers continue assembling microwave ovens, and the hope is that this entire operation will be using energy generated on-site from renewable sources. Robert Blowers, Managing Director, Panasonic Manufacturing UK says, "As part of the Panasonic Manufacturing UK 50th anniversary, Panasonic Corporation have invested in the first European Panasonic HX facility, and that's going to be based here in Cardiff. That's a combination of solar system, that's a combination of storage battery and hydrogen fuel cells to power the microwave oven facility in Panasonic Manufacturing UK using 100% on-site renewable energy." The renewable energy system combines solar photovoltaic panels (PV), hydrogen fuel cells, and battery storage units to provide a reliable power source for the factory. This system ensures the factory is self-sufficient, a strategic move as Panasonic seeks to reduce reliance on external power sources amid global energy instability. The technology, part of Panasonic's RE100 project, was successfully trialed in Japan and is now being implemented in Europe for the first time. Shigeki Yasuda, Senior Engineer who worked on the RE100 project at Panasonic says, "On sunny days solar PV covers the demand (in electricity) for the factory, but on cloudy or rainy days fuel cells start up immediately and covers demand for the factory." The factory was officially unveiled on December 3, 2024, at a ceremony attended by Panasonic executives, local politicians, and dignitaries. Masahiro Shinada, Panasonic Corporation's CEO, says investing in hydrogen is a pivotal moment for the company, and he looks forward to a future where hydrogen is used more often as a way to shift to renewable energy. Panasonic says the Cardiff facility will serve as a model for future projects in Europe, showcasing renewable energy's potential for industrial operations.

In this episode, Dave and Jamison answer these questions: What advice would you give for working with an ineffective leader whose input is crucial to your work? I'm a senior developer for a mid-sized non-tech company with probably 60-80 devs, and in the past year I've been working more with a VP of software who seems to still be involved in code details, getting pulled in to production issues, in-person code reviews, etc. He's a nice guy, but he seems like he's being pulled in too many directions at once. When he schedules a meeting, there's a 50% chance it happens on that day and time, and when we do have meetings, if we bring up questions and high level issues we need feedback on he's quick to “take ownership” and say he'll do X and Y. Inevitably, X and Y slip down the priority list because production issues and who knows what else, and we're stuck waiting weeks on end for something that if he'd just delegated the work to someone else, we'd have long since moved on. But we still need his input to shape our work. How can we as lower-level developers (with a manager who isn't involved in this project at all) help mitigate these delays? I've recently accepted a new position after spending more than three years at my first job out of college. Currently, I'm a Senior Engineer at a large, corporate-like company (300+ people), but my new role will be at a much smaller startup (20-30 people). I'm excited about the change but also a bit nervous, as I know startups can be fast-paced, and I'll need to get up to speed quickly. What advice do you have for setting myself up for success in this new role—both before I start and after I begin? I have a couple of weeks before my start date and want to use that time to prepare effectively.

In this engaging podcast episode, Adrian, your host, is joined by Paul Adams, the Head of New Product Development and a Senior Engineer at the Sofeast Group, to explore the concept of MVPs (Minimum Viable Products) versus SLCs (Simple, Lovable, Complete products). Paul expertly clarifies these concepts, tracing the origins of MVPs to Eric Riese's lean startup approach. He elaborates on how MVPs aim to bring products to market swiftly to gather initial consumer feedback. However, common pitfalls are discussed, such as focusing too much on 'minimal' and neglecting 'viable'. Transitioning to SLCs, the conversation highlights the advantages of crafting products that are not only simple but also complete and able to forge emotional connections with users. Paul emphasizes that while both MVPs and SLCs have their place in product development, SLCs offer a framework to deliver more polished and consumer-friendly initial offerings. Throughout the episode, listeners are treated to practical advice, real-world examples like Amazon and Airbnb, and Paul's insights into avoiding common product development pitfalls.  The goal is to equip you with the knowledge to make informed decisions about your product's journey from concept to market.   Show Sections 00:00: Greetings and introduction. 03:12: MVP Overview. 05:50: SLC Overview. 08:18: Why the MVP is the Go-To Framework for many Businesses to Launch Products. 11:11: Is an MVP more Useful for the Business Releasing the Product than the Customer? 13:47: MVP Examples: AirBNB & Amazon. 17:29: Flaws of the MVP Concept. 22:12: What is an SLC Product? 30:10: The Appeal for Consumers of the SLC over the MVP. 32:49: An MVP's Speed to Market and When This is Beneficial. 34:13: The SLC Creation Framework. 39:17: Tools & Methods that Work Well When Creating an SLC. 43:43: Common Problems to Avoid When Creating an SLC. 53:06: Key Takeaways and Wrapping Up.   Related content...

Construction and Engineering Sectors Account for More Job Vacancies Than It Sector Over the Past Three Months

Hiring platform IrishJobs has published the results of its Jobs Index for Q3 2024, revealing that the share of job vacancies offering fully remote work has fallen to its lowest level in nearly four years. However, the data indicates that hybrid working vacancies remain stable. Data shows that the proportion of fully remote job vacancies fell to 1.9% in Q3 2024. This continues a trend of falling vacancy levels in the practice over the previous four quarters and indicates a clear reduction in the level of fully remote homeworking in Ireland. In contrast, the proportion of hybrid working vacancies has remained relatively stable, fluctuating between 11.2% and 12.4% over the past six quarters. This stabilisation indicates that hybrid working will likely remain a more permanent and substantial feature of the Irish labour market than the full-time working-from-home model. Candidate interest in hybrid working shows little sign of abating, with searches on IrishJobs for hybrid opportunities up 46% in Q3 compared to the previous year. While searches for jobs offering remote work are up 9% over the same period. IT & Engineering Sectors The IT sector has yet to show signs of a return to vacancy growth following a period of rebalancing. While the sector recorded a 10% decrease in quarterly vacancies, it still remains one of the largest sources of job vacancies (5.1%) in the labour market. Data shows that automation engineers were the most frequently posted job openings by employers in the sector in Q3. Software engineers and senior applications specialists were among the other roles that experienced the highest levels of demand. The Engineering sector was another major source of job vacancies (5.2%) in the third quarter, marginally ahead of the IT sector in vacancy generation. Senior Engineer, Process Engineer, and Qualified Technicians were among the roles that experienced the highest levels of demand in the sector over the past three months. Domestic sectors outperform International The Q3 Jobs Index reveals a cautious hiring market, with job growth continuing to moderate following a hiring surge in recent years. Data shows that the number of new job vacancies decreased by 13% Year-on-Year (Y-o-Y), while vacancies fell by a modest 4% Q-o-Q over the quarter. Sectors associated with the domestic economy tended to outperform internationally traded sectors. There was positive quarterly vacancy generation across a number of domestic-led sectors, including Property (15%), Retail (7%), Arts and Entertainment (57%) and Travel (19%). The strong rates of vacancy generation in these domestic consumer sectors may be attributed to rising wages in real terms as inflationary pressures ease and benchmark interest rates are cut. Internationally traded sectors posted a weaker performance than domestic sectors. There were quarterly decreases in vacancy rates across international sectors, including Manufacturing (-1%), Banking (-37%), Finance (-12%) and IT (-10%). With continued global economic uncertainty and greater instability in the Middle East having a knock-on impact on production costs and consumer demand, it is likely that hiring in these international sectors will remain subdued in the months ahead. Sectoral trends The Catering sector (11%), which includes jobs in hospitality, accounted for the largest number of vacancies over the past three months. Management (8%), Medical Professionals & Healthcare (7%), Sales (7%), and Customer Service (6%) completed the top five sectors that made up the largest number of vacancies. The Construction sector was responsible for the sixth largest share of job vacancies (5.3%), overtaking the IT sector (5.1%) and confirming a trend that emerged earlier this year. While the Construction sector experienced a quarterly decrease in vacancies (-15%), the longer-term trend in Construction is one of increasing hiring activity. The Construction (31%) and Property (29%) sectors both posted significant Y-o-Y increases in j...

Ennis 2040 Board Member Calls For Funding For Upkeep Of Businesses Affected By Works

A member of the Ennis 2040 board has proposed putting aside funding for the upkeep of businesses affected by the ongoing public realm works in the county town. It follows previous calls from business owners for a moratorium on commercial rates in order to offset the loss of business caused by the disruption. Although the works to upgrade the streetscape of Ennis Town Centre only began last October, traders, residents and local representatives haven't been shy in expressing their frustration with the pace at which progress is being made. Clare County Council announced in September of last year that it had entered into an €11.5 million two-year contract with Shareridge Limited for the delivery of enhancement works at High Street, Bank Place, O'Connell Square, O'Connell Street, Old Barrack Street and Barrack Square. As per the contract, construction must conclude by next October or penalties could be incurred by the contractor. Following backlash from traders regarding the effect the works are having on their ability to ply their respective trades, Ennis Fine Gael Councillor Mary Howard has this week called for funding to be set aside, partially out of councillors' General Municipal Allocation, for a paint scheme for affected businesses. A community group known as Retailers of Ennis has previously suggested a moratorium on commercial rates as an alternative way of supporting businesses throughout the construction stage. Councillor Howard says it's not within the gift of the Council to do this, but making funding available to businesses to cover the cost of painting their premises would give them a welcome helping hand. Responding to Councillor Howard's motion, Senior Engineer with Ennis Municipal District Seán Lenihan says he fully supports "the principle of the matter". He's also confirmed that a meeting with Ennis councillors will be held to "discuss the options and make the necessary arrangements" in order the implement the paint scheme. Mention was made over the course of this week's meeting of Ennis's local representatives of an alleged dispute between the Council and the contractor which is slowing down the pace of the works. Seán Lenihan says while turbulence can be encountered over the course of such projects, he's not aware of any such dispute.

We were recently acquired by another mid sized company. Since the acquisition, things have been going downhill. It feels like they're trying to nickel and dime their employees to death. They moved from a bi-monthly to bi- weekly pay, from accrued PTO to Flex PTO, they sat on merit raises for over 2 months , and have paused all promotions unless you are getting a promotion to management. We have a number of engineers who are deserving, but broaching the subject with HR results in excuses, pushback or silence.

I'm really on the fence as to whether I quit for a new role or hope that they somehow become more efficient. I've been doing this long enough to know they will probably not change. So would you quit? Hello Dave and Jamison, My name is Angelo, and I'm writing to you from Italy. I've been enjoying your podcast for quite some time. I'm reaching out because I've been working for four years at a small company with 11 people in the cultural heritage sector. Although the company produces software, there are only 2 programmers (myself included), while the rest are roles like graphic designers, art historians, and archaeologists. It's a rather unique company in its field, and for that reason, I'm happy to work there, also because I have many responsibilities related to the company's performance, probably more than I would have in a multinational corporation. However, there's a catch. The fact that there are only two programmers, and in this case, I am the more experienced one, often makes me feel that I don't have the opportunity to interact with more experienced individuals, and this might hinder my growth as a professional as opposed to being in a team with more programmers. My question is: what can I do to compensate for the lack of work interactions with other developers and to keep myself updated? I've always read that the best growth happens in a company where you're surrounded by more experienced people, but in this particular case, I find myself in the opposite situation. I participate in Telegram groups and often read software development books to stay updated, but it's also true that the hours outside of work are meant for rest and leisure, so they only go so far. How can I keep pace with those working in larger teams on bigger projects? I don't intend to change companies at the moment. Warm regards from Italy, Sinhuè
