Permit Watch, Turning Ireland's work permits into a job-demand proxy
I'm a Stamp 1G student in Ireland. DETE's data is gold but buried in Excels. Built this to filter/search: HSE's 12,501 health permits (2024), IT trends (6,788 issued), CSRI success odds (e.g., 88.8% for US devs at Meta Dublin). Proxy insight: High permits = hot sectors/companies for non-EU talent. 100% DETE open data. Feedback?
Permit Watch, Turning Ireland's work permits into a job-demand proxy launched on October 28, 2025 with 5 votes and more than 75% of that year's launches.

I created https://www.howmuchrent.com last Friday to help bring this kind of transparency to Ireland, allowing people to submit their rents. Would love to get any HN feedback on the idea/website.

Hi HN! A few days ago I saw a graph[0] that showed the # of job postings on HN was declining. I started wondering what other trends I could glean from the data, so I created this! You can filter through the top level comments by keyword; for example you can filter by "remote" to see the massive spike around March 2020. Another interesting thing I found is that I can compare hiring across cities. I hope you enjoy! I made it so that the links to your search are sharable so if you have some interesting data you should be able to just link the page you're on! [0]…

- IMI made a job board for Elixir language2024 · elixir-careers.com · ▲8
Hi, I built a job board focused on positions where Elixir is a core requirement. During my job search I realized how frustrating that Elixir was often just a nice to have but not a main requirement. So I started posting jobs where Elixir is a primary skill. Whenever I find a relevant position I verify it and post it on the site. elixir-careers.com I believe that Elixir will be more and more popular from now on since huge companies are finally adopting it
Transforming "Who's Hiring? (November 2023)" Posts into a Google Sheet2023 · docs.google.com · ▲27Hello HN Community! I've transformed the "Ask HN: Who's hiring? (November 2023)" post into a Google Sheet. Here's a quick rundown of the method: I utilized the Hacker News Algolia Search API to extract data.

Using a GET request, I fetched comments from the thread and processed them via the ChatGPT API. Employing the ChatGPT API for each comment, I parsed crucial job details such as company, position, location, and more. This information was structured and…

I went down the rabbit hole on a side project and ended up building this: Strange Attractors(https://blog.shashanktomar.com/posts/strange-attractors). It’s built with three.js. Working on it reminded me of the little "maths for fun" exercises I used to do while learning programming in early days. Just trying things out, getting fascinated and geeky, and being surprised by the results. I spent way too much time on this, but it was extreme fun. My favorite part: someone pointed me to the Simone Attractor on Threads. It is a 2D attractor and I asked GPT to extrapolate it to…

Autism Simulator▲779Hey all, I built this. It’s not trying to capture every autistic experience (that’d be impossible). It’s based on my own lived experience as well as that of friends on the spectrum. I'm trying to give people a feel for what masking, decision fatigue, and burnout can look like day-to-day. That’s hard to explain in words, but easier to show through choices and stats. I'm not trying to "define autism". I’ve gotten good feedback here about resilience, meds, and difficulty tuning. I’ll keep tweaking it. If even a few people walk away thinking, "ah, maybe that’s why my coworker struggles in those…
