Our corpo year starts May 1.
Please add an offset functionality to your free solution immediately, as it has now become a core component of our operation, or we will be forced to take legal action.
Also, we appreciate if you could sign a retroactive NDA with our legal team ASAP.
- lokimedes 2y agoMy boss tells me we need it in Comic Sans for the next meeting with our board of directors. Thank you.
- collingreen 2y agoHello!? No response yet is this project dead or something it has been 30 minutes since the last question. This is very important to a major customer project of ours please get on this.

- xd1936 2y agoNow there's a design that pops!
- _carbyau_ 2y agoReal World aside: The other day I tried to 3D print small text. (Not super small, just the usual 0.4 nozzle size.) Comic Sans worked out best for this due to pretty constant line width.
- Symbiote 2y agoComfortaa works well for this: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Comfortaa https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Comfortaa
- Imustaskforhelp 2y agoI was once given a 3d print of my name by one of my father's friends who had a 3d printer at home. I think this was what font they used except they had it all connected , that is if I am typing "test" then t is connected to e and then s and then t , in probably the same font as that of Comfortaa.
- soneil 2y agoFonts with 'routed' in their names are often a good place to look for this - they're named thus because they were designed to be scribed/engraved with a router, so very frequently have a constant width. (and if you're up for a rabbit hole, https://aresluna.org/the-hardest-working-font-in-manhattan/ https://aresluna.org/the-hardest-working-font-in-manhattan/ )
- _carbyau_ 2y agoThat was a delightful rabbit hole. Also, thank you for the "routed" tip. Your rabbit hole also mentions "monoline" and the MIL-SPEC-33558 font too. I'd upvote you ten times if I could. Made my day.
- Izkata 2y agoI would like to share the existence of Comic Papyrus: https://befonts.com/comic-papyrus-font-finally.html https://befonts.com/comic-papyrus-font-finally.html
- Imustaskforhelp 2y agoIt actually looks really good , but I don't see a option to try text like in google fonts for example. Let me see if its on google fonts Edit:nvm the option to write text is below , I didn't see it. Its kinda cool actually.
- rpep 2y agolol, yep, mine is 1st October?!
- _n_b_ 2y agoOffset financial years mean your finance people aren’t working furiously between Christmas and New Years getting the EoY stuff done. I feel bad for the ones in my company every year.
- etothepii 2y agoThough it means that some years have 53 weeks in.
- deruta 2y agoDon't they any way?
- dragonwriter 2y agoWell, 52 weeks is 364 days, and a calendar year is 365.5±0.5 days, so if you are doing “years” by whole numbers of weeks and don't want to get more than a week out of sync with the regular civil calendar, you are going to need a 53 week year every few years, regardless of your start date.

- loloquwowndueo 2y agoNothing more corporate / enterprise than deciding the year starts at any point other than January 1st :) (yeah I know all about the fiscal year, which I also find hilarious)
- marcus0x62 2y agoSome of them don't even start on a month boundary, or even on the same day every year. Cisco, for instance, has a fiscal year based on a retail calendar[0]; their fiscal year ends on the last full week in July. 0 - https://nrf.com/resources/4-5-4-calendar https://nrf.com/resources/4-5-4-calendar
- conductr 2y agoIt is for year over year comparability for anyone unfamiliar
- smcin 2y agoWell yes for a strictly non-consumer company, since their revenues don't depend on Superbowl, Valentine's Day, Easter, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Amazon Prime Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving/Cyber Monday, Christmas. They probably depend more on Fed rate cuts/rises affecting corporate infrastructure budget. ("Honey I got you that Cisco 4500 you always wanted...") Whereas for anything consumer e-commerce, you'd want a calendar with variable/sliding dates (e.g. SuperBowl) but that at least keeps the above events in the same quarter YoY, consistently.

- SAI_Peregrinus 2y agoISO 8601 allowing week-based year numbering is even more insane. E.g. In 2007-12-31 (in RFC 3339 format) is allowed to be notated as 2008-W01-1 in ISO 8601. RFC 3339 is superior, partly because it prevents this bullshit. ISO week numbering is actually sort of neat, because instead of leap days it has entire leap weeks since the 400-year Gregorian cycle has a whole number of weeks in it, but for some reason they decided that a week's year is the Gregorian year in which the Thursday of that week occurs.
- megadata 2y ago> we appreciate if you could sign No need to appreciate. Signing the retroactive NDA is a non negotiable.
- siva7 2y agoReading the comments here gives me PTSD and a wish to go deep down the forest chopping woods
- steine65 2y agoWe should table this discussion and circle back EOD. Regards,
- nzealand 2y agoWe have a P0 to add calendar 445/ 544/ 454. This critical oversight is causing us to lose sales, as our sales folks never know when those companies fiscal year ends, and end up missing budgetary deadlines. Also, my legal team says your color choices aren't compliant with Section 508, so regrettably, we do have to take legal action. Edit: EMEA has questions I couldn't answer about GDPR, PII & data governance. Can you please hope on a quick call to see if they also want to sue you?
- steadycourse 2y agothis thread both made me laugh and gave me heart palpitations, thanks everyone!
