That's what I thought. This list mixes "falsehoods" that nobody with a bit of common sense - even children - would believe, and pedantry that could be useful to 0.001% of developers. For most programs, Time starts in 1970.
IMO, this list is only good at... wasting time. Except for the multiple statements (that could be one or two) that point out that there's not such a thing like "identical clocks" and "same time on two clocks".
- wink 4y agoSo "most" programs can ignore birth dates of people older than 52? I don't think so.
- trentgreene 4y agoDo most programs need to know the birth date of the user?
- thfuran 4y agoMost of the programs I write do. Well, of people, but not typically the user.
- astrobe_ 4y agoMost programs don't deal with birth dates and people. It's like stating that most "computers" are neither on a desktop nor in a pocket. Technically correct, as counter-intuitive as it is.
