The creator of DST gets the first slap. Then the timezones asshole.
I'm planning to do a presentation at work on how to deal with dates/times/timezones/conversion/etc in the next few weeks some time. I figure it would be a good topic to cover. I'm going to start my talk by saying "first, imagine there is no such thing as timezones or DST." And then build on that.
Imagine, if we were just all on the same time. It'd just make things, a little easier.
Life, that is. It would just make life a little easier.
