Their argument was about the optimal date format to use.
What's there to discuss about ISO 8601?
WHOOO!!! ISO-8601 FAN CLUB!!! [runs around the room cheering like a lunatic]
Easy. YYYY-MM-DD Z-HH:MM(:SS)
Anything else in inferior.
Everything that doesn't start with the month is fine for me. This shit is vile!
So YDYMDYMY it shall be!
YYYY-DD-MM? Don't be ridiculous!
Well it doesnt start with M
MYYYY-DD-M
This is only true when dealing with huge amounts electronic data, for easy sorting and such. DD:MM:YYYY is superior for everyday use. Don't even try to change my mind
As a Hungarian I have to say that YYYY.MM.DD. Is clearly fucking superior.
Please elaborate. Can't see how this could be true in any situation but I'm willing to hear you out xd
If most of the dates you're looking at are within a reasonably narrow span (say 90 days), DD.MM.YYYY gives you the important information first, and you can often omit the YYYY entirely.
Exactly. It's also spoken in that order for that reason. At least in the languages I know. If I ask you for the date and you start with 2026, I'll be a litte confused.
Must be a regional thing, because around here it's MM-DD-YYYY spoken.
True. But I found that out after importing loads of photos from my old phone where I stored everything DDMMYYYY. Shit was all fucked up (winXP times). I'm used to DD-MM-YY on a daily basis, which is totally fine. Just don't name your files like that xD
MM-DD-YYYY is best!
All aboard the downvote train! Choo choooo!
YYYY-DDD
I prefer SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS because what can be more accurate and objective??
time_tftw, see you in 2028.
