No. Not enough, not close, deep, or consistent enough.

Does it help you in acceptance or in not doing it?

Two minute rule. If you can do it in two minutes, just do it.

Their aspiration is to rule over all of America.

Maybe they made their own comment in here, lol

Post on Lemmy, obviously.

For debate, I’d be willing to take a different position.

I don’t necessarily escape it.

Usually, I keep busy. The feeling of nothing is enjoyable I know too. I switch to something else or wait for it to pass.

I watch every Jake Broe video on 1.3. He talks slow.

Really, it depends. Theres plenty I speed up and plenty I watch at 1x.

It depends on content, topic, style, directing. Speedup is fine for most information consumption. When its a documentary, the directing and length often makes 1x more viable.

No way the entire world gets on board, and in a reasonable way. Human psychology stands in the way of that.

Whether it gets experimented and implemented more in some countries - possible - but I don’t see as particularly likely or unlikely.

It’s one solution to resolving the tensions of capitalism and social capitalism and the degradation of social capitalism. Whether it will be UBI or something else, and where - we will see.

I assume you’re aware of !ukraine@sopuli.xyz

It’s a prominent concern in programming, but not only relevant there.

In my native language German, we do dd.mm.yyyy, which is the order you seem to use as well.

Other languages speak it as month, day, year. A different commenter suggested using that.

If you read left to right, is putting the date first purely because you’re used to it, or is there a different reason you can give for it?

Someone mentioned “relevance”, but where do you draw the line? You can only skip month and year if you know they’re the current month and year. But you can only know that after reading them.

When we read 123, we read it as one hundred twenty three, not three twenty one hundred. It’s the same hierarchical structure, from bigger increments and scope to smaller, higher specificity. If you care only about 10k vs 20k, you can skip the rest of the numbers.

The same goes for dates. It makes sense to go from broad to specific, in the reading direction. When reading left to right, that’s YYYY-MM-DD. I’m familiar with the current year and month, and so I can categorize at a glance. For dates further away, I can read as deep as the specificity is relevant to me - in reading order.

This, for me, is the logical hierarchical argument.

As for the sorting, simple alphabetical sorting sorts YYYY-MM-DD into time order, but not DD.MM.YYYY.

This applies not just to programming, but to all forms of text or date formatting.

If you’re sorting by date in DD.MM.YYYY, you’re reading and parsing it right to left. If it’s a date within text or pre-text, you switch the reading direction for a part of the text/title/whatever it is.

That’s enough for 12, not 60.

I discovered this format on 01-02-03.

That doesn’t sort well. If you read left to right, you can’t assume year so you have to read it in full, working backwards, to get the full meaning.

Year first means you get more specific while reading. Natural logic and hierarchy in reading direction.

Which symbols do you suggest?
