Well thatā€™s what Iā€™m saying.

Gone right to the bottom of my holiday list.

I mean, how am I even supposed to book a holiday there if I canā€™t put the date in properly?

Itā€™s as if yous donā€™t want us to visitā€¦

Holy crap thatā€™s why we had so many Swedish iSeries developers in my company. That and IBS was also based in Sweden. So many lines of code reference American date style. So many debug sessions with that date style and time style. Iā€™m sure thereā€™s a proper name but Iā€™ll look into when the gummies are out of me. Hopefully that is before the Elektron shop opens. I better preload the site then.

I need some Dunkin Donuts right now after the gym .

YYYY-MM-DD is the ultimate date format, objectively!

When you name files like that they actually present themselves in the right order when sorted by file name. With the year at the end not so much.

Question. So windows in the EU also follows this format ?

Thatā€™s a military style dating system. Iā€™ve seen the Marines date documents like this.

Havenā€™t used windows for a decade but it surely is in the options at least. Not sure what it defaults to. Pretty sure some EU countries also opt for a different (inferior) format.

Love that there are more posts in this thread about date formats than about the announcement. Elektronauts forever!

Agreed, YYYY-MM-DD is superior and formatted for least ambiguity, but YY/MM/DD is an abomination.

Itā€™s bad enough that Americans think itā€™s ok to overload nn/nn/nn with their ludicrous MM/DD/YY we donā€™t need European marketing hipsters inventing YY/MM/DD.

You wait, tomorrow Trump will announce that all US IT systems must adopt YYYY-DD-MM!

If we wait 6 more years even the hipster-ish YY-MM-DD canā€™t confuse anyone as no month or date would start with 32 :). Weā€™ll be safe until the turn of the century!
