Is there a calendar that can show the whole year and mark days with different colors if there are all-day events? For some reason calendar apps don't treat year view as something important which is crazy to me. I like to have an overview when planning vacations and stuff like that.


I was looking for the same recently, would be especially nice for vacations and remote working periods. It feels like the best method is still a paper wall calendar and a marker which is a bit surprising. If someone has any suggestions I'd be excited to give them a try!

Second this. I've written my own private Google Apps script specifically for this view and I wish more calendar apps would do the same. Maybe I haven't looked hard enough.


I really like Teamup's year and timeline views. Set it to multiweek for 30 weeks and span it across all your screens: http://teamup.com/examples/ex12

I also keep a printed copy of this at my desk. https://davidseah.com/node/compact-calendar/


I've been looking for this kind of feature for a long time. Lots of orgs need to plan out certain things over the whole year with their various teams (you don't want two teams trying to do their biggest fundraising at the same time, for example), and it boggles my mind that calendar companies don't make this easy to see.


I have found a few excel templates that print out the whole year on a tabloid piece of paper.

There's one landscape template that works well enough that it could also look good on a monitor. If I can find the original link to it I can share it if interested. I ended up writing a script that just populates the excel template until I get around to replacing it, or discovering it.


I wanted this so bad I wrote up a quick personal app that pulls from a couple of subscribed Google calendars and does almost exactly like what you are asking for. I don't know how anyone plans multi-day events without it. Huge for family meetings where we are planning out the year.


I don't think its crazy either. Having a view of your year with major things that require lead ups and follow up is critical. It actually makes the year go much smoother.


They serve a purpose.


Same could be said about headphones, yet here we are.


Yep, I don’t use headphones that much either.


Heartstone is Unity, Witcher card game by CDPR may be as well.


Support for Gwent will end this year and Hearthstone is soon 10 years old and not that relevant for Blizzard. Their much more important game Diablo Immortal uses a different engine.

The big publishers only used that engine for a few offshoots and this change will guarantee that won't happen again.


> Voluntary certification, please. Second this, otherwise it'll just put smaller companies without enough resources at disadvantage.


I'm using Earasers, it actually makes music sound better and I don't have any ringing in my ears after the concert.


As an option, to rank items, you can use the amount of money that the item has earned instead of just the number of upvotes. You can even replace upvotes number in the UI as well. This way frequent meme-upvoters will have less sway over more picky users. It'd be easier to register astroturfing accounts and to promote something to the top, though.


One issue is that the amount per upvote is only known at the end of the month - only then you know how many upvoted to split the $1 over.


You could keep updating the weight you give to each upvote. That would mean upvotes you make at the start of each month are valued too highly before getting valued less, but as long as the creation date of all the accounts are distributed evenly across the month that should even out.

Alternatively you could base it on the number of upvotes a user gave last month, before correcting it at the end of the month, although that system might be easy to game.


Agreed, I wish I had more thing like this growing up.


I was a restless sleeper until I've learnt to sleep on my back. Try it for a week, it really is a superior position to sleep in.


I lift. Running is even better, if it's your jam.


Yep - running saved my sanity on many occasions
