  • ISO 8601 is paywalled
  • RFC allows a space instead of a T (e.g. 2020-12-09 16:09:...) which is nicer to read.

We need a better one....

Ymd-ymd-yhms-yhms

Much clearer and easier for programmers.

Right now, it's 210-024-200-379

Am programmer. Idk wtf that is. But if it converts easily to a datetime object, or if I can easily parse the parts out of it, I'm all for it. Idgaf if it's easy to read as-is. Just make it efficient and make it sort predictably, and I'm all for it lol.

Too confusing. How about ymh-yMy_myM-h

Maybe we could use different letters. Something only ISO knows and jeeps in their spec.

RFC2795, because the IETF guys work hard, and then play hard on April fools.

The space is SO MUCH BETTER

https://programming.dev/c/programmer_humor is leaking.

They're both standard for the format of dates and times, like 2023-12-13 15:52:21. I guess one of them isn't free, though? TIL.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !programmer_humor@programming.dev
