One thing that is always annoying is how the unix datum, 1970-01-01 00:00:00 GMT was in fact 1970-01-01 01:00:00 BST in the UK the very country that invented GMT.

ISO 8601 has three main formats:
• Calendar (standard YYYY-MM-DD)
• Week (YYYY-Www-D, like 2026-W12-4)
• Ordinal (YYYY-DDD, day of year)

Finalizing a post on using ISO 8601 week dates to simplify workplace time management.
Quick ask: Does ISO 8601 feel intuitive to you, or does localized time still make more sense?
Appreciate your comments, they'll shape the final version. Thanks!

If we all used UTC, life gets simpler… and we all sound like pilots. “Wake up at 1100Z” (aka 6am EST). “Lunch at 1700Z.” No more “wait, are you PST or PDT?” Just one clock, endless smugness. Keep local zones only for vibes and daylight complaints.
