I remember before apple took over workflow IFTTT was able to trigger workflows to run, but I no longer see that option?
Am I missing something or is my memory making things up?
I’m fairly new to shortcuts and was wondering how I could make a shortcut that tells me which classes I have today. So, when it’s Wednesday, Siri can tell me that I have Politics, Music, French and English class today.
Thanks in advance!

Set the date to Mon, Tue etc. by doing this: https://www.reddit.com/r/shortcuts/comments/jzbokk/how_to_set_a_shortcut_that_can_run_on_specific/gdb12ga?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3
So I’ve always been a fan of scripting and automation. I think it’s a wonderful ability we have and I think it’s really useful in so many walks of life.
That being said, I’ve never bought into the Apple Shortcuts stuff. I’ve never seen anything that’s made me think “WOW! That will really help speed up my day/this process.”
​
I was wondering if you could share with me some shortcuts you use, which aren’t novelties and which ACTUALLY save lots of time and are really useful.
I’ve seen ones for setting alarms etc. going to bed. But I feel like it’s just as quick for me to open SleepCycle and press ‘Start’…

You probably don’t care enough, but, change my mind?
I guess my major qualm is that I don’t want to seem like I’m trying to use their podcast as promo for my new project… I just want them to know I took their advice and how far I’ve come.
one of my dreams is to one day visit iran. for some reason i feel very drawn to it and am a bit saddened whenever i share this with someone and their response is this certain “look” as of iran wasnt a beautiful country. i wanted to learn farsi but didnt find many resources that worked for me. my fav language app is duolingo but it doesnt offer farsi. i think part of why americans have a certain disposition toward iran is bc actually they dont know much about the country.
all this to say, im excited to have found this podcast and hopefully i can be better prepared to advocate in favor of this country next time im met with “the look” my skeptical weary americans.
edit, forgot to add linkhistory of iran podcast
Whether you are someone who has been following the case closely, like me, or someone completely new to the LISK case, this show is a MUST LISTEN. This is the first show in awhile that I feel is shedding new light on to the case. It’s better than the ‘LISK’ podcast.
Billy Jensen is a BADASS!
I really love a podcast where someone is telling their whack ass story, and it feels like I’m chatting with a friend and we’re discovering something fucked up or scary. Stuff like Spooked, Snap Judgement, Radio Rental, Something was Wrong. I’ve listened to Serial, Over my Dead Body, and like p much every other wondery podcast - Serialized podcasts are good but they don’t satisfy my need in the same way. Any suggestions appreciated! Thanks!!
Just seems like there would be more podcasts going for longer episodes, if it’s been clearly proven to be a wildly popular format. Obviously not a good fit for a variety of types of podcasts, but not something I’ve seen much. Or maybe there are a ton of long podcasts I just don’t know about?
Any suggestions on a self help book for teens with social anxiety, general anxiety, depression? I’m determined to get her the help I wish I’d gotten. A therapist is definitely at the top of the list. I’m just thinking a book might give her some comfort in the meantime. Therapists are hard to get in with in my town. As far as the book goes: she obviously doesn’t like to be spoken to like she’s a child, being 13, so probably nothing geared towards children. Thanks so much for your help.
I’m an ITU doctor, I’ve always loved reading. Because of this pandemic I’ve just seen so much death, it has totally dehumanised me. I just see humans connected to machines chugging away.
I’m not a religious man. I’ve read Camus, I’ve read Stoner by Williams. I really relate to these, because I see the world as inherently random and absurd.
Is there a book out there that can make me see past this? Show me the brighter side to human existence? And I dont mean some self help book.
If someone can find me a book that does this, I will be forever grateful. I’m not expecting it to be found tbh.
*EDIT: Wow. So many recommendations already. I’m gonna get through the ones I havnt read and slowly get back to you, starting with The House in the Cerulean Sea.
Thanks also for the kind messages. I’m lucky to have my job, and I feel OK. I just want re-humanise my outlook.
This truly is a wonderful Subreddit.*
I’m nearly 40 and it would be good to read about the future but with adults!
I like Hunger Games and The Divergent Series.
I don’t particularly like zombie/alien/vampire/werewolf stuff - I think I’m interested to imagine how human life is going to be in the future.
I like time travel as well and anything crime/mystery.
Please help - and if it’s a series even better. Thanks!
I’ve grown up in a non-tolerant family and unfortunately, I have this natural tendency to be skeptical. I want to change my mindset and read more about what LGBT is.
If you know a book that addresses topics like historical roots of discrimination, scientific theories about why some people have a different sexuality, what society does nowadays to combat discrimination and so on, I would be grateful to hear.
This might be an oddly specific request but who knows what might be out there? In short, I struggle with chronic depression/anxiety, but for some reason the absolute worst times are the morning hours every day. I wake up with immediate panic/anxiety, and the depression is just amplified for the first 2-3 hours of every day. I wonder if there are any books that might help with just waking up/starting the day? I mainly enjoy non-fiction and psychology type books, but open to anything. Thanks a million for any suggestions!
Edit: Whoa boy this really blew up, I don’t think I can keep up with all the comments but thank you everyone! This is so very helpful and appreciated!
