A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

ISO 8601 ftw!

It's the only way.

The way almost everyone else does it - Americans, Europeans, etc - is just wrong.

May I introduce East Asia? They also like to do addresses top down

I mentioned etc.

Oh sorry, my point was that East Asia does it YYYY-MM-DD, with the exception of maybe some different delimiter and leading zeros depending on preference, they already coincidentally do it the ISO way!
