I’m not a computer and this isn’t work so I’m gonna just use my confusing date format.

I just don't like to be forced to include the damn year everytime, and if you cut the year from ISO 8601 you get the american MM-DD order, which everybody hates.

I like DD/MM/YYYY. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Feb 27th 2013

Boom. Everything is in a different format so you can order it however you want and it's still readable.

This format can fuck off. I prefer the unambiguous format 2FEB2013.

Checkmate, date snobs.

And yes, nations are free to use their appropriate abbreviations for the months.

Working for a global clinical research company, DD-Mmm-YYYY is the easiest for everyone to understand and be on the same page. It's bad enough identifying which date you're capturing in metadata without also trying to juggle multiple date formats.
