Same. You can always tell how is going to be the weather by yourself. Depending on how much time have you lived in the same place you can predict the weather for the day when you get up or, if you are a completely stranger to the environment, at least half an hour before.
I have used PlaylistSorter in the past. Very useful.

I recently discovered Spicetify [0]. It's great.

Re:I Hate Traveling on Sunday December 11, 2022 @11:31PM (#33950887)
Traveling as tourist sucks, you go in “tours” looking everything from outside, expecting the end of it. But what can you do when you only have limited holidays for vacation, your little time free from work (which is your main activity.) Off-course you are not traveling like as nomad people do, it is leisure for you. Tourism is a big economic chunk, the places you are going are counting on your money (that you got by working.) You are spending it for everything. Moving from one place to another, riding some transport machinery that your own body can assimilate as fast, staying for less time that would take you to walk there and quickly moving back. A glimpse of time spend, the fading memory. Experience something different from home, so similar to make sense and respond to the surroundings as you normally would. Partly because you are not giving up you life, your comfort, for such moment. At the end is your break time, when you rest from the exigencies of your routine.

I have used your apps for the Palms that I owned. I keep the Treo 650 up to 2010 where I used UDMH on every boot. Thanks.
Re:Ask HN: What is the best book you read in 2020? on Thursday December 31, 2020 @01:40PM (#25595604)
For me was Stephen Buhner's Plant Intelligence and the Imaginal Realm. It changed my perception and gave explanations of things I only knew intuitively. Highly recommended.
totally possible, make them write you first.
It didn't because declaring it was inconceivable in the Judeo view. But he might well understood he was God.
Re:Guided by Plant Voices on Friday May 01, 2020 @09:26AM (#23041745)
An interest read on the subject is plant intelligence and the imaginal realm by stephen harrod buhner.

Also the biography of barbara mcclintock.

How much of science is done on weekends? I feel that investigations without capital investment is done in a hobby-type schedule. Probably these discovers (if any) might don't change our reality immediately, but are not worth the investment?
