My HN profile was created 864 days ago. When was it created?

  Ooh, ooh, I bet it was a January.

  Just over two years ago. (730+ days) If I needed an exact date, I would do something like the following (python) >>> import datetime >>> datetime.date.today()-datetime.timedelta(864) datetime.date(2010, 4, 13)

    Well, see, I would just print the date that's there in the database in the first place. How is "864 days ago" useful information? Doesn't everyone at least convert it to the number of years it stands for?

    Easier in shell: $ date -d '864 days ago' Tue Apr 13 13:46:16 EDT 2010

  This is why I'd love to have knowledge engines like WolframAlpha integrated everywhere (or at the very least, as a CLI program). http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=864+days+ago http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=864+days+ago
