Everytime Pi Day rolls around (har har), there's always comments about how Americans are weird for using the mm/dd/yyyy format for dates, while much of the rest of the world uses dd/mm/yyyy.
Hot take: both formats suck and should be replaced by the superior yyyy/mm/dd
Edit: this apparently is more of a lukewarm take than a hot take lol
Why? Because it actually makes sense.
It works the same as a number (e.g., the carry digit always moves left), and it allows you to effortless sort by date if you use it in a filename.
Until it's mandated by law and common decency...
@theartlav sizzling take: yyyy/mm/dd makes for efficient directory hashing.
ISO 8601 for the win.
We're a biased sample! 😅
yyyy-mm-dd is in fact the ISO standard format.
This is the correct answer.
Every comp school and IT -ish person I know is a fan of iso-8601

If you've ever wanted computer files sorted by date, is the way to go.
But with that time format we'll have just only one Pi day on the 9th of may 3141, is it worth it?
I like that format (using "-" instead of "/") because if I use it when naming computer files, the files will automatically be in chronological order when sorted alphabetically.
