I know people who actively fight me on ISO 8601. They don't like the way it sorts their files/folders, reliant on whatever behavior the operating system does. Whenever data recovery happens or their files are moved, all the change times are blown out the window and the sorting they expect is blown away.

I'm not yet using a 24-hour clock. But it has me thinking. That's not such a bad transition for 24-hour local time into UTC. Or just using both. At some point the inconvenience of the local will become vestigial and UTC is what remains.

I use 24h clocks and ISO 8601 dates almost always

Honestly, I'm better at organizing code than I am my actual life
