"He agreed with Patrick Jackson BL, defending, that a lot of drivers regularly took that illegal right-hand turn despite there being numerous signs advising that it was not permitted."
Is "everybody does it" genuinely a mitigating factor? I fear it is.

Background on my experience.
I don't use it for coding (sometimes for tech assistance on SAP and Azure)
Mostly I use it for planning work in the very human world of creativity/arts. It helps but sorry to say it clearly parrots. Maybe it's just at a very naive stage? I'm sure it will mature.

I use Claude every day with a pro subscription. I use the free offerings of all the other major LLMs most days too
They're very useful, can respond in a very humanlike fashion but I'm seriously unconvinced there's anything more to them than their technical components
Extraordinary claims... etc.

Department of Transport u-turns on mandatory helmets and high-vis for cyclists
Mandatory helmets and high-vis for cyclists are now not being looked at by the Government, the Department of Transport has confirmed. The introduction of mandatory Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for bicycle users is "outside the scope of the current measures" being looked at by the Government, a Department of Transport spokesperson has said this afternoon. The Department issued what it terms a 'clarification' about 24 hours after it said that bicycles were included in a move to make helmets and high-vis mandatory for e-, and hours after the Tánaiste, Simon Harris, contradicted the Department's statement from yesterday.

At least the South King Street brickwork reflects the Gaiety theatre. The rest is a bit pants
The problem is that the proposed replacement is awful. The utterly cookie cutter bland type of awful. By all means replace the centre, but for God's sake replace it with something that's an improvement!

That's fine so long as this time they understand the difference between de-escalation and appeasement. But there has to be a red line somewhere.

Donald Trump is clearly mad. This is batshit level mad. We've heard of mad Kings in history from hundreds of years ago. This one has access to weapons that could wipe out civilization.
