- mehrdada 5y agoIt’s just PT: Pacific Time.
- nfw2 5y agoI usually write out Pacific Time out of concern that not everyone would immediately recognize PT as an acronym. Most scheduling systems use the full acronym.
- rrrrrrrrrrrryan 5y agoWhat you're talking about is just "PT", but I usually just write out the word "Pacific".
- pflanze 5y agoI think this might be ambiguous, since "Pacific/$city" refers to a part of the world that the west of the US ("PT") is not part of. I've decided to add "Pacific Time" to my "dateparse"[1] script, though. $ TZ=America/Chicago dateparse '6:30 PM Pacific time' 6:30 PM Pacific time: assuming PDT 1647480600 Wed Mar 16 20:30:00 CDT 2022 [1] https://github.com/pflanze/chj-bin/blob/master/dateparse https://github.com/pflanze/chj-bin/blob/master/dateparse
