2021.6: A little bit of everything

Yep. Just keep in mind that this would need to be used everywhere. Not just the pickers. I.e. the calendar entities, calendar cards, etc. It’s almost like it would be a whole new… what’s the word…

Nightmare?

Interestingly, the energy panel hardcodes Monday as SOW (was wondering about the discrepancy)

                ? startOfMonth(start)
                : startOfYear(start)
            );
          }
          
          
private _pickToday() {
            this._setDate(
              this._period === "day"
                ? startOfToday()
                : this._period === "week"
                ? startOfWeek(new Date(), { weekStartsOn: 1 })
                : this._period === "month"
                ? startOfMonth(new Date())
                : startOfYear(new Date())

          }
          
          
private _pickPrevious() {
            const newStart =
              this._period === "day"
                ? addDays(this._startDate!, -1)

~~Yes, and calendar cards and calendars start on Sunday.~~ EDIT: Looks like this is the only place that supports locale. It needs to be unified across the entire software with new functionality.

DavidFW1960 · June 6, 2022, 10:01pm

Mine here all show sunday as first day

tom_l · June 6, 2022, 10:37pm

Have a look at the BoM weather calendar.

It depends on a few factors. There is a normal week and then there is a work week.

In the United States, a work week starts on Monday. However, on all normal calendars that you see or that you can buy in stores, the week does start on Sunday.

That’s also why Sunday and Saturday are called weekENDs, because Sunday is at the front end and Saturday is at the back end.

Sunday being the first day of the week goes back all the way to the origins of Judaism. Hebrew does not name its days, but numbers them. Sabbath is the only day that has a name, and is Saturday, the seventh day. This convention was originally carried forward into Christianity.

“Weekend” not weekends. i.e. The end of the week. So that means Monday is the start. Also since biblical times: Sunday the day of rest occurs on the 7th day. Thus the first day is Monday.

DavidFW1960 · June 7, 2022, 12:47am

The Bible refers to the first day of the week and it was the day after the sabbath.

I know I probably had a part in starting this debate, but now I want it to stop.

As I wrote in a matching frontend issue: If Firefox were to support the API to detect the week info this would have been an easy fix and we would already have added that: Date range picker not respecting locale · Issue #12635 · home-assistant/frontend · GitHub

But until this is case, we would have to roll special logic or include another dependency that tries to determine the info or add temporarily a new user profile option.

I think there also was a discussion in Discord reg. those options.

Are you able to log in on your ancient iOS these days? I’m stuck on initializing trying to find a use for ipad2

rkjr · January 11, 2023, 10:35pm

No.
The oldest iOS that works is ios12 and the idevice that supports it. Below that will have login problem.

You can still script a website with the built-in web server with a display of some simple switches and sensors though.

DavidFW1960 · January 12, 2023, 12:47am

You can always run a web browser in a docker container on the server and vnc to that from your old ipad too…
