When talking about the date with another human, DD/MM (+YYYY if required); when doing anything related to the sorting of files by date, YYYY/MM/DD.
I'm the only one annoyed about DD/MM/YYYY not being a date, but a date "format"?
Not only it's a recycled joke, it doesn't even make sense.
That's a tough one. I would have to say April 25. Because it's not too hot, not too cold, all you need is a light jacket.
Why is there no format that gives the month in three letter abbreviation so its clear cut what it means?
That's what the us armed forces do. Jun-12-2025
For computing or sorting purposes, YYYY-MM-DD is best. But in day to day writing a date, I prefer DD-MON-YYYY.
Single letter for month is too ambiguous - how do you tell apart June, July and January? Also, what do O and N denote?
Seems you missed the point, it's first three letters of the month, not one. Edit: seems I missed the joke on the post.
What if the day in question isn't a Monday?
11-006-2025 ?
11-Jun-2025
11-Jun-2025
It's shit format but at least it's better than 11.6.2025 or 6/11/2025
