I think our whole timeline spans from some Romulan plot about something involving handing a compilation of Federation history to some weird guy... What was his name? Gene Roddenberry?

Hey, did anybody remember to turn off skynet yesterday before 2:13 AM?
Well I'm still breathing, so I guess so.
While you're at it, switch over to DD/MM/YYYY for the date format. The only 2 configurations that make sense is that or YYYY/MM/DD. Either go general to specific or specific to general, MM/DD/YYYY makes no sense.
No, switch to ISO8601
Overly strict for anything day to day, overly permissive for anything important.
RFC 3339 is where it's at.
TIL.
For purposes of this post though, RFC 3339 and ISO8601 are identical. Dates in the format YYYY-MM-DD, so 2024-08-29 is both RFC3339 and ISO8601 compliant.
Not an expert, just spent around 2 minutes looking at https://ijmacd.github.io/rfc3339-iso8601/

15c better be the temp inside the building, because it sure as shit is hotter anywhere else.
They could be in New Zealand or Chile, if they hadn't referenced The US..... Maybe they are in Nome, AK

But still write dates wrong
Year-Month-Day is the only way. It's chronological!
And rhymes
day should be first because it's the one that changes the most often and we read left to right.
Putting the year first makes archiving easier. Your computer literally puts everything in order that way. Day first, and it will be sorted by the most frequently changing element.
Also year first allows you to timestamp your files, so they are sorted by what time you created them that day.
Sorting by day, at the end of the year you'll have files from the first day of each month grouped together, then the second day, and so on. Still searchable, but not as orderly.
yea but I was talking in the context of a clock. for the uses you described YYYY MM DD is obviously better
People be hatin but I agree. in instances where the only goal is for a human to read the date, dd-mm-yyyy or even dd mmm(m) yyyy are better UX.
Next you're going to suggest that 2000 should come immediately after 1000 (instead of 1001) because we read left-to-right.

That's crap. Kelvin is the only true metric temperature measurement.
