Going day to day, dd/mm/yyyy works, but for archival purposes and looking up stuff in the past, mm/dd/yyyy works better, imo. Like when you need to go through a physical file cabinet, or an electronic database.
Or you're the type of person who's zoned out all the time and don't even know what month it is until you look at a clock or calendar.
I just dont see why the hell you would switch? dd/mm works fibe in all situations and has some advantages sometimes, while mm/dd is fine sometimes, but generally worse or equal.
Except it doesn't sort well in any fashion and it requires two different types of contexts to interpret. It's easier to screw up the order of a month by name than it is to screw up the order of a number. Not saying we should play to least common denominator, but we should be making it as easy as possible. I'd prefer sorting speed over needing to learn how to interpret the date correctly if every single date is stored the same way.
The Inspector General apparently had enough evidence to tell Congress “y’all need to do something about this”, but I’m still going with “it’s nothing” until we see good evidence that isn’t just video clips or “I know a guy who knows a guy”.
I should’ve been dead by the age of 24 due to an aneurysm, yet I’m still here in my early 40’s. So I lived my life taking risks and expecting the early death, only to still be here long past my expiration.
Every ounce of my luck must be spent keeping me alive, because my life is abnormally unlucky in every other aspect.
No you could just say “hey btw I had an aneurysm last time when someone tried smalltalk, maybe stop talking unless you want me to sue you for causing an aneurysm like I sue the person who caused my aneurysm the last time” immediately proceeds to have an aneurysm
It seriously does, if I didn’t joke about almost everything I think I would’ve gone mad.
Not to mention the number of people that assume that since I can act normalish, no long term damage was really done.
It’s infuriating, I had to retrain myself to understand basic emotions and sarcasm, yet some still regularly use (heavy) passive aggressive comments. Or, that any of my issues due to it will magically disappear as it makes them uncomfortable.
I’m Dutch, and honestly we’re not making it easy for all of you. You’ll see us aggressively commenting that “actually it’s not Holland but the Netherlands”, but then at the same time a lot of Dutch people themselves also use “Holland” instead of “the Netherlands”. Companies and advertisements will use “Holland” to advertise abroad, we chant “hup Holland hup” during soccer events, etc.
So while it’s technically true that “Holland” isn’t “the Netherlands”, anyone making a point of it is being pedantic and annoying like 90% of the time. Everyone knows what you mean.
Yeah, Martin mentions how hideous Tyrion is so many times in the books that you’d suspect that he has personal animosity towards little people or something 😂
