I think you mean 2023-16-08 https://www.thefarside.com/ Internet format dates stop both confusion and stupid date format arguments between Americans and Europeans.
Edit: oh no oh no oh no, I meant 2023-08-16, what an idiot!
Imagine saying yyyy-dd-mm is better than yyyy/mm/dd
Yeah I think they just made a mistake or have misunderstood. Given the reference to "internet format dates" they must be talking about ISO 8601.
Yeah, that's what I meant!
Y/.... D/M? In what universe is this a good format?
None whatsoever, I meant 2023-08-16
This is the worst date format suggestion I've ever seen.
I made a stupid, stupid mistake and meant yyyy-mm-dd
mmyd-dy-my
Made me chuckle, thanks. Today is Au00-82-g3
Y/D/M? Seriously? The whole point of putting the broader numbers first is so you can sort them better. Why throw that out the window halfway through?
Ooops! That's not what I meant!
doesn't make any sense to not order the date chronologically. this is the one time i think the americans are doing it better.
I actually meant 2023-08-16, but I secretly don't think my error is any more illogical than the original. More hypocritical, perhaps!
