Nothing beats ISO 8601, YYYY-MM-DD

[-] [email protected] 86 points 2 years ago

RFC 3339! ISO 8601 has way too many weird formats that are allowed like today would be 2023-W41-2. See for example here.

[-] [email protected] 27 points 2 years ago

I feel offended - W%W-%w is my preferred way of noting down dates :D

[-] [email protected] 20 points 2 years ago

Whoa, that's a cool website!

[-] [email protected] 16 points 2 years ago

It’s really pleasing seeing the seconds all change in unison!

[-] [email protected] 17 points 2 years ago

Great, now I need to memorize "RFC 3339", because I officially have a new favorite date format. Thank you!

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Fortunately this one is easy:

three threes equals 9 3339

I am fine with any format that puts the month between year and day.

This is the way.

[-] [email protected] 17 points 2 years ago

The most logical format, especially for digital files.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago

This is the way.

Put the most significant digits first. Always.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

100%

  • alphabetical order = chronological order
  • unambiguous regardless of locale
  • easy to read/parse by either machine or human

I remember in high school a friend waited until 10/10/10 to ask a girl out so he'd never forget their anniversary. I think they dated for like a month lol

10 percent of the time it works 10 percent.

[-] [email protected] 23 points 2 years ago

Let me guess, instead of asking out another girl on 11/11/11 he played Skyrim?

It's not a bad idea, that's why I got married on 2/14 so I wouldn't get stuck having to have an extra gift giving holiday.

[-] [email protected] 18 points 2 years ago

i'll say it time and time again:

This format is shit and makes no sense

[-] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago

No no, he got married in the 14th month of the year which doesn't exist, so there wouldn't ever be an anniversary

[-] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

I unironically asked myself what happened in February of 2014 at first lmao

How are you in november already?!?!? ^/s

[-] [email protected] 21 points 2 years ago

Nobody woke him when September ended.

[-] [email protected] 44 points 2 years ago

New Zealand: It's the fucking eleventh!

[-] [email protected] 13 points 2 years ago

gotta love seeing everyone else celebrating something about the date that we are already done with

[-] [email protected] 25 points 2 years ago

I don't get why more people don't go biggest to smallest. Makes so much more sense. Especially when listing dates in order. YYYY/MM/DD

[-] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

ISO 8601, BABY!

Damn it! I am one day late.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago

10 out of 10 out of 23 are like 100%

[-] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

Indonesian here, it's October 11th here.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago

Not just Americans https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_format_by_country

But pretty much just Americans

Unix people today : "NICE NICE"

Unix people today from 20:28:10 to 20:28:20 GMT : "NICE NICE NICE NICE"

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

Also looks better if you interpret it as a score than, say, a 9/11.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

What happened on the 9th of November?
