The zeroth of March is not uncommonly used, to mean the last of February whether it's the 28th or 29th

It's basically the UI equivalent of this:

Yes, it's a fully-functional date picker and also deviously, wildly, uncomfortably outside of aesthetic norms. Also, there's a lots of fun, invalid combinations of input outside of the usual "February 30th" shenanigans.

Why yes, that's my birthday: the 32nd of Septunepril. What's the problem?

Funny month names are all well and good, but the only ones you can actually spell here are:

January, March, May, September, November, and December.

Otherwise, it's

Febranuary, Japril, Juney, Julyber, Maugust, and Moctober

We can clearly see that this design is silly, because it allows for so many invalid states. Yet when we represent some type, let's say in Java, were so often forced to do this exact same thing. Have variables in a container of which only a certain combination is valid. And then have at most a comment saying "this number is only valid if X is also set" or "if the validity boolean is true". Luckily Java finally has some ability for the so-called sum types now, just like Haskell's data types or Rust's enum types. Imo any language should have this.

Having data dependent on each other in a type means that either you have redundant data (so one of the fields should be computed) or that your container tries to be too generic (you should in this case prefer an 'Apple' class over a 'Fruit' class with an enum field 'Type')

Captchas are really getting out of hand.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 days ago

This is beautiful. Especially if it filters the available selections based on what is selected in the previous column.
