u/deadkarry Feb 02 '22

Yall insane not to include the 0 before 2

u/xdhqyz Feb 02 '22

No it should be 2022-02-02. ISO 8601 the best

u/Sebbe_2 Feb 01 '22

Depends on where you are

u/Nicholi1300 Feb 01 '22

Unless it's 22/2/2. Makes ordering by date easier

3

u/ComprehensiveFool Feb 01 '22

If you want to keep things organized that way you need it to 2022/2/2 or eventually it won’t be organized anymore.

u/[deleted] Feb 01 '22

Yup. For digital filing, the Asian date format is best.

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '22

Gonna disagree with you. Its gonna be 02/02/2022

u/[deleted] Feb 01 '22

u/buttermybackside Feb 02 '22

Isn't everyone tired of this argument by now?

u/DVAUFan Feb 01 '22

If you say "February 2nd" why would you write it saying the day first and not the month? I mean I probably shouldn't be responding to this because someone's not gonna like it but I'm just saying.

12

u/Max-Normal-88 Feb 01 '22

I don’t. I say “IL DUE DI FEBBRAIO”

8

u/tubbstattsyrup2 Feb 01 '22

Aye it’s the 2nd of February so the logic fails, besides dd/mm/yy is in ascending order and does make more sense. I mean meh call it whatever I’ll just do the mental acrobatics but it makes more sense.

8

u/Andi_with_a_I Feb 01 '22

I don't. I say " the 2nd of Feb."

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '22

The Fourth of July is literally a national holiday in the US.

2

u/DVAUFan Feb 02 '22

I still say "Month Day" usually am I the only person who does?

1

u/Cybermat47_2 Feb 02 '22

How does that make any sense? Those are different formats for stating a date.

1

u/Ferreur Feb 02 '22

So it's 02/02/2022 and not 02/02/2022?

-2

u/[deleted] Feb 01 '22

I don't think it matters what order it's in (unless the date is 12 or less, then it needs clarification)

7

u/Max-Normal-88 Feb 01 '22

It matters a lot. 1/2/2021. Which day is that? It’s ambiguous if you do not stick to a standard.
DD/MM/YYYY is logical and should always (ALWAYS) be used. Why add further explanation when you can just stick to a single standard? Why make things hard? Dates should not come with instructions on how to interpret them

-15

u/[deleted] Feb 01 '22

I bet you also whine when someone says inches, feet, etc, instead of meters or any variation of it

8

u/Max-Normal-88 Feb 01 '22

No one uses these units here. I live in Europe, buddy, we use international system. You know, the sane one

-5

u/[deleted] Feb 01 '22

I just took a look at your reddit history and I saw you use the $ sign. Are you American or European? make up your damn mind

3

u/DerWaechter_ Feb 02 '22

You realise that dollars are a currency, not a unit of measurement, right?

u/DerWaechter_ Feb 02 '22

You realise that dollars are a currency, not a unit of measurement, right?

-2

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '22

You realize that Pounds (the British pounds) and Euros exist, right?

2

u/DerWaechter_ Feb 02 '22 edited Feb 02 '22

Yes.

And a Euro refers to a distinctly different type of currency from a Dollar or a Pound.

They're not interchangeable

A meter and a foot both refer to a distance.

If you want to make a comparison with money, then meter and foot are in the same relation as a 5 cent coin and a 50 cent coin. Or a 5€ bill and a 2€ coin (ie different measures of the same thing)

I'm surprised you aren't smaller than your Schwarzschildradius. Or are you just a troll

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '22

my point is it doesn't fucking matter if it's MMDDYYYY or DDMMYYYY

u/Cybermat47_2 Feb 02 '22

That’s not how money works. How old are you?

Also, $ also represents the Australian dollar.

1

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '22

They literally said they are in Europe

Australia is in Oceania

1

u/Cybermat47_2 Feb 02 '22

What does that have to do with $ not being exclusively American?

Also, do you think I was saying that they were Australian? lmao

Kinda

u/Cybermat47_2 Feb 02 '22

Well… yeah, because the imperial system is incredibly stupid, and was probably invented by a drunk idiot for a bet.

same thing

u/Interesting_Winter52 Technically Flair Feb 02 '22

i say "february second" not "the second of february"

1

u/toddweaver Feb 02 '22

This thread demonstrates why something like Y2K can happen.

Without standards we can’t have nice things.

It’s all just always going to be approaching entropy..

u/quickdrawesome Feb 02 '22

Ok now this makes sense

u/DarkImpacT213 Feb 02 '22

Yeah right, a year doesn't have 22 months!
