We're still using a calendar that was essentially created by Julius Caesar (with a slight adjustment by Pope Gregory). I think you're underestimating the power of continuity.
- sarchertech 7mo agoKeep in mind that the calendar we use today is off by 13 days from the one in use 2000 years ago. We’re talking about an hour difference in 6,000 years. 6,000 years ago is 1,000 years before Stonehenge. And this isn’t about whether we use the same calendar, we’re talking about whether we have time keeping continuity down to the second. This requires infrastructure continuity and essentially no adjustments whatsoever over that time.
