Libre Office: the glass is Feb 1st
Also the civilized world.
Some countries use YYYY MM DD which is also sane.
YYYY-MM-DD is the only sane format.
%s is cool as well in my opinion.
I prefer writing it out as DD MM YYYY, but i like my computer to sort everything by YYYY MM DD.
YYYY-MM-DD is the ISO standard for that exact reason. It sorts chronologically without having to implement a custom comparator, regular string comparison is enough.
In JavaScript it would be February 2.
In JavaScript it would be “true” for some reason
I am almost sure 1/2 is indeed true
Edit: in javascript
1st of February.
The realist: This is piss.
Or would that just be pissimistic?
Pretty sure I’ve had excel do something like change 1/2 into March 6th…
Or a UPC into scientific notation…
I’ve been doing heavy Excel/data work for years and never have I ever wanted or needed anything in scientific notation.
The more lines you add in a program, the more stuff can break which is what I assume happens with excel when it thinks something is a date.
Spreaking from experience, my code is in a metaphorical sense a building that is built to lean towards the wind, but when the wind stops, the entire thing collapses. I assume that’s how excel’s code base works too.
Realist: the glass is plastic
This is not a glass.
Parrot says otherwise
Physicist: state is undecided
