minus-squaretrxxruraxvr@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up19·10 hours agoPi day is a fake holiday created by people who don’t know how to format dates. Also, relevant xkcd.
minus-squaresome_guy@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up4·5 hours agoIf you want a computer to sort dates in a sane manner, year-month-day is the only option. Anything else is madness.

minus-squareCethin@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·5 hours agoBiggest is referring to length of time, not number. Years are bigger than months are bigger than days, temporally.
