Sometimes when I’m a joyless pedant about using SI units, formatting them in standard ways, etc., I’m dialing it up to 130% and making a little bit of fun of myself and others.

@vruba Excel dates all the way
@vruba Also one of my nontechnical arguments for ISO8601 ordering is “there’s only one possibility for which on is the month”. Way to ruin that, people
Very few people should implement all of ISO 8601 – it’s more complex than you might think – and I have reservations about recommending any standard that isn’t freely available anyway, but RFC 3339 is right there. Right there! And it’s really good!
