I just read your blog post and found it very interesting. I have to ask, practically speaking, doesn’t it just create more work for you having to keep track of the time and date in multiple formats simultaneously? When people give you information using standard time and date keeping metrics, do you just translate it into your system mentally? I’m curious how this system works for you practically on a day to day basis.
I mentalize both systems. Any difficulty is worth it since it has compatibility in mind. It's the one I use in groups I administer because of this. Doing things the normal way, for a lack of better words, seems and even feels outdatedly/unthinkingly convoluted and skewed, as someone coming from several different backgrounds. The former is also less of a strain (both mentally/technologically) once one becomes accustomed, to put it one way it's like the Lojban of timekeeping.
Huh, TIL about Lojban .
