Good luck getting people to change the way they write dates, no matter how terrible it is.

- runlevel1 4y agoISO 8601 is pretty common amongst the engineers I've worked with. Odds are they didn't grow up with it unless they're from China or a handful of other countries that primarily use YYYYMMDD.
- weberer 4y agoIf you give people a good reason, they'll actually care. "Use YYYY-MM-DD as it allows us to sort by date in the filesystem" is a great reason. On the other hand, bickering about DD-MM-YYYY vs MM-DD-YYYY because "that's how it is in my country" just makes me roll my eyes.
