I love that in 50 years, the youth of that time will be taught that we used to change clocks twice a year, and they can laugh and wonder at the old-timey silliness of it all.


well, it's largely automated now days.. I think my stove clock (aka the power outage event recorder) is the only clock I manually adjust these days.


> well, it's largely automated now days

This almost makes it sound more ridiculous. It shows that we could easily switch to a different system and yet choose not to.


> well, it's largely automated now days

Sure, but somehow far too much of our code doesn't work right during time changes. Also for timezones at all while we're being honest.


> aka the power outage event recorder

Man this is so true lol
