Java's Date standard lib was awful for 2 decades, so there's no guarantee that a big standard library is a good standard library.
- sethammons 1y agoEven in a good standard library, oddities arise. Many praise Go for its standard library but then there is its time format that raises an eyebrow: 01/02 03:04:05PM '06 -0700
- pezezin 1y agoMuch like the traditional Unix date format, which for some reason puts the year at the end. Example from my computer: $ date Thu 29 May 13:12:30 JST 2025
