We definitely need a "bad UI battles" community here.
It already exists
I'm so glad you guys remember that sub. I miss the silly things you guys made.
DONT SPEAK TO MY OR MY ISO 8601 EVER AGAIN! 🤬🤧😢
I hope you mean RFC 3339 instead of that non-authoritative ISO crap 😤
You mean the standard defined by The Internet Engineering Task Force? Of course I do! The ISO name is just more popular.
Love the smell of a good standards body fight in the morning (0900 GMT+0).

Just to keep you guessing
Then you feed {12,12,12} to the API and it turns it into 1970-01-01T12:12:12UTC

At least it's not a phone number entry via slider.😤
The fuck you just say to me, you son of a bitch?
It's the 21st of 1946, June.
Who the FUCK is June? You cheating bastard!

Ew
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS
Rfc3339 is the way. Mathematical superiority is on our side.

Is that not the format that's actually used in the US? I mean, it's utterly insane, but a lot of people really are used to having the components of the date in random order.
nope, we use the format that matches the words spoken so Friday September 15th, 2023 would be Fri 9/15/2023 sometimes the year is shortened
take into account that your "words spoken" isn't necessarily how other say it. For me, saying 15th of july of 2023 sounds way more natural in english.
I wonder if they have a special rule to use dd/mm/yyyy on the 4th of July.

We must know: how many digits is the year? And when they're displayed later, do they use slashes or hyphens? I want to really breathe in the awful.

MMYYYYDD
YYYY MM DD
That's actually the best
no, the best is YYYY-MM-DD
That's what I use but the dashes aren't the most important part
