I read your post and hear echoes of "Who would ever need more than 2 digits for the year in this timestamp column?"
Never again.
- vbezhenar 2y agoUsing 2 digits for year is as wrong as using 8 bytes for year.
- riku_iki 2y agoscale of damage is very different, so "as" is up to discussion.
- lazide 2y agoEh, using 2 digits for year is a lot ‘more wrong’ than 8 bytes. Since all (current) known use cases can fit in 8 bytes for the conceivable lifespan of human civilization. 2 digit years don’t even support the use case of ‘store the current year’ fully.
