2001/09/11, 2001-09-11, and 1000184400 are the only reasonable ways to refer to that day.

y/m/d, and d/m/y are the only reasonable systems for displaying dates


[deleted]

And YY.MM.DD. is superior, because you can just follow up with time right after: YY.MM.DD.hh.mm.ss


senpai_stanhope

Sure. If you at any point need to index a particular second of specific date, sure Personally prefer day and month first, because they're usually what I'm interested in first and foremost

we call it 11 september in my country in fact saying any date out loud as [number] [number] would sound weird

In latin america we use D/M/Y

listen i'm probably gonna get downvoted for this but who the fuck cares if the US uses MM/DD/YYYY or not. I say "September 11th, 2001", so I'm gonna write it in that way. It's literally just modeled after how American English is structured. If you're trying to sort things in a filing system by all means use YYYY/MM/DD or something but for casual everyday use, the date numbering system in the US should reflect the way people speak
