From the discussion

A few top-level comments from Hacker News, shortened. Read the full thread on Hacker News.

Nice to combine with the Astrological CPU Scheduler: https://github.com/zampierilucas/scx_horoscope

Very, very distantly related to the topic, but it reminded me of the Cosmo Phase watch from Casio (CGW-50), released in the 80s [0] Having stars and planets at your fingertips... [0] https://www.casio.com/us/watches/50th/Heritage/1980s/

Reminds me of `phoon` which shows the current phase of the moon in ascii https://www.acme.com/software/phoon/ `brew install phoon`
