Depending on the location, but

  1. Often rain comes along for the ride on a warm front as it moves over the property (although cold fronts also carry rain)
  2. In winter, the rainclouds act as insulation and so rainy days are warmer than blue-sky days

This is the right answer. I had the job of planning a schema update to fix this shitty design.

Saying that, unicode and character formats are incredibly complex things that are not easily implemented. For example two strings in utf-8 can contain the same number of characters but be hugely different in size (up to 3-4x different!). It's well worth reading through some articles to get a feel of the important points.

They might not use genered pronouns, but they do a lot of referring to people as uncle/auntie/big sister/little brother and the like.

Take a human to make a human - it's just common sense.

Many years ago, my mother used the electric lawn mower without unspooling all the wire. When it finally shorted, all the plastic wire insulation was in the process of turning into a melty plastic soup. A Lesson Was Learned.

The reason isn't resistance - it's that the coiled wire makes an electromagnet that stores energy in the magnetic field. The alternating current in the mains switches 50 or 60 times a second. In each cycle the magnetic field is created, destroyed then recreated in the opposite direction, then destroyed. This dumps a lot of energy (and therefore heat) into the coil.

If your partner doesn't properly value your feelings and doesn't support you in your vulnerable moments, that is a bad sign for the relationship.

Even better - it's using ESPHome, which is part of the Home Assistant stack.

ESPHome works from a YAML config file, which ESPHome uses to build firmware images which can be installed OTA (or USB of you must)

Spotted an owl in the woods in Bishan Park in central Singapore early in the evening. Logically this makes it a spotted wood owl.

Sorry for the low quality - it was at the limits of my Pixel 6 camera.
