Honestly I do remember some months, like starting and ending of the year. I don’t encounter English month names on a regular enough basis to remember their order and my month names in no way relate to English ones.

So anything after February and before August I have to google each time I encounter them.

It doesn’t help that we don’t even have month abbreviations like English does (Jan, Feb, etc.).

72 * 10 + 70 * 3 + 2 * 3

That’s what I do in my head if I need an exact result. If I’m approximateing I’ll probably just do something like 70 * 15 which is much easier to compute (70 * 10 + 70 * 5 = 700 + 350 = 1050).

I would’ve said balls, but I can see an ass as well.

The Microsoft thing is entirely regional. It’s not that Microsoft does dates a certain way, it’s your regional defaults. I live in a country that does dates the ISO and the computer displays them thay way.


Someone once told me that american date format follows the same pattern as regular speech. Like "26th of April, 2004. It made some sense to me, but that still feels a silly reason to discard just the sorting benefits.

Just looking at the provided numbers it feels marginal, how is it much better?
Biggest increase is like ~12 % on one of the benchmarks. Other benchmarks don’t show any significant changes

Judging from screenshots in this article, it doesn’t seem to loose or gain any functionality: all of the same controls are present.

With this in mind.
Who cares!? It’s neither good nor bad. It’s like the thing with playback line color. Yes, it’s different, no, I didn’t notice until some pointed it out, no, I couldn’t care less.

Jokes on you, I can’t fucking rember which English month is which. April, May, July and Autum is just a grey mass to me.

Me, the dev: “Nobody reported this as a problem… Ok, don’t care, moving on.” Also, if I can’t reproduce it, I can’t fix it, no point in wasting time more than that.
