It handles ambiguity too. Want to say something lasts for a period of 1 month without needing to bother checking how many days are in the current and next month? P1M. Done. Want to be more explicit and say 30 days? P30D. Want to say it in hours? Add the T separator: PT720H.
I used this kind of notation all the time when exporting logged historical data from SCADA systems into a file whose name I wanted to quickly communicate the start of a log and how long it ran:
20230701T0000-07–P30D…v101_pressure.csv
(“–” is the ISO-8601 (2004) recommended substitute for “/” in file names)
If anyone is interested, I made this Bash script to give me uptime but expressed as an ISO 8601 time period.
Because…what white man would live in the swamps of the Seminole, and the US Army lacked clear goals.

Sherman, was pro union and anti confederacy. It was that simple—to own slaves, or not, was not his concern.
There is no glory in war; Sherman’s own words say it often…the ACW was the waste of poor young American men, dying in fields because wealthy plantation owners would have it so.
This was the unforgivable sin in Sherman’s eyes, to inflame the passions of our youth, to no end.
Why glorify Sherman? He slept, rode, and ate, as his soldiers did. To know the capability of his army, he did not separate himself, unlike his peers.
He suffered ill health, mental breakdowns, familial loss, often on the verge of quitting — and yet, saw it to the end, despite the death and senseless carnage.
I’m from a small town of 4,000 people in Northeast Texas and …in the late 90s…
Had to finish high school out of church because a kid literally burned down the school. He got expelled and on his way out the door he said I’m going to burn this m*********** to the ground and he did.
Person I went to school with got strung out on meth and decided to murder three gas station attendants.
So yeah the entire thing is stupid. As if protest and crime are new concepts due to a new world order brought about by liberalism.
These are serious issues no doubt but when I see all the memes about this song in particular all I can think about, " The sky is falling Chicken Little" or “if these kids could read they’d be angry” or “it’s funny until it happens to me”
Can confirm, my small town of 2300 has like six sex offenders living here. Family got arrested a few years ago for having an incestuous relationship, old man was shot by a cop outside his home in a standoff a couple years back because he pointed a rifle at the cop. I know of a guy on the other side of town (like maybe 5-7 town blocks) who shot his wife in the face in front of their two kids, served time, and later re-married and had another kid. According to some hearsay, the new wife and kid apparently think his old wife faked her death and framed him for her murder. A kid in my local school took his own life after extensive bullying. The school wouldn’t do anything about the bullying but made sure to have a huge anti-suicide campaign after the kid died. The parents of that kid didn’t get any of their other kids counciling after his death, and one of his brothers would later attempt suicide, only to end up blowing off one of his shoulders. (He survived and his shoulder was even fully reconstructed) Local hospital had an RN work there for years only for them to find out she had zero certifications AFTER she quit. Same hospital also had a nurse baptize a stillbirth because she believed the baby would go to hell. I’m told that nurse was fired, but not for that incident. Had a cop that was fired after he was caught having sex with a sex worker on the hood of his police car.
Those are the things I can recall off the top of my head, though most of them are stories from my mother. I’m almost certain they all happened within the last 30 years though.
My company has decided to standardized on phone numbers with dots instead of dashes. They’re in email signatures, memos, client proposals. I absolutely hate it and it rubs me the wrong way every time I see it. It’s wrong.
I use a standardization library for phone numbers. It makes parsing any user input dead easy, storing it as a standard string (can’t think of the standard name) and then outputting in the country’s respective format. I don’t have to inject a bunch of JavaScript crap that’s like “wrong format” and harass users; the backend sorts it all out.
Although I actually like that format a lot, we use characters to help elicit context. 2023/08/09 is fine since we have been using / for dates for so long. Also it blows my mind why people don’t use : in 24 hour times. 16:40 is great, no am pm bullshit and you immediately know I’m talking time.
