Guess that doesn’t make for “great literature”

Somebody better put you back into your PLACE

My “friends” used to frame me and get me into trouble with teachers. And I wouldn’t rat on them because they were my “friends”. Not saying the teachers should have realized this, but there’s a lot going on that they don’t know about.

Boomers got more conservative as they grew older because they’ve been eating shovels of propaganda since reagan and never learned how to fact check like younger generations

Anything they can do to distract the population from all the government corruption. They learned it from Trump. And the panama papers. Overwhelm people with problems and they lose the ability to focus on any one of them.

English people say October 5th. Spanish people say 5 de Octubre. Same for other languages. That’s probably why Europeans prefer the other format.

You could convince a group of people to use YYYYDDMM, but what I mean is nobody currently uses it. So at this moment of time YYYYMMDD is intuitive, and has a miniscule chance of being mixed up like DDMMYYYY and MMDDYYYY (because a large number of people use these formats).

Please don’t convince Americans to use YYYYDDMM lol. :-)

DDMMYYYY would be great, if it weren’t for 95% of Americans that use MMDDYYYY. Is 07/02/2000 July 2nd or Feb 7th?

Thus the only solution is to write out the month or start with the year, because no logical group of people currently use YYYYDDMM. Plus by using YYYYMMDD you get the added benefit of the dates all being sortable using dumber applications.

Net neutrality and reddit’s API changes are pretty different situations.

Losing net neutrality could have raised prices on the entire internet, but the important thing is ISPs have too much of a monopoly on internet infrastructure. Many consumers across America only have one or two options for their ISP.

Reddit and twitter’s decisions to privatize their APIs isn’t a new phenomenon. Other companies already do this for a variety of reasons. Reddit’s worry about AI driving up their cost is valid, but instead of tackling the problem as a bot problem, they took an easier way out and damaged the user experience.

Where the situations are different is: it’s accessible, cheap, and profitable to rebuild a site like Reddit and create competition. It’s not any of those things to compete against an ISP.

The wording on your post makes it sound like supporting net neutrality is supporting the API changes, but that’s not true. I can help give some clarification if you want.
