The article focuses a lot on how this reduces friction when working across time zones but glazes over how it makes interacting with everything local require a conversion.
5 days a week I am working with people in Seattle, NYC, Munich, and often London or India. I have to coordinate meetings across time zones a lot. I travel a lot.
And yet at home or on the road I have to process things like "this store closes at 18:00" or "this train is at 16:45" infinitely more. Putting my devices in UTC requires me to think for all of those interactions which is way worse.
