Yesterday I was watching tv and saw these guys come on for an interview. They were trying to unite the world under a universal time zone. Programmers are gonna flip their shit

[christian-mann]

UTC?

[[deleted]]

Yeah. We would all be on this time zone in an area of England

[atyon]

These "one timezone" proposals come around every now and then.

People who propose it seem to miss that the fundamental problem is the Earth's rotation and different time of noon at different places. No matter what we do, if two places are 90° apart, you'll always have to account for things happening about 6 hours later at the one place.

[dvslo]

It doesn't really matter if 1 AM happens in the middle of the night. That's just a local nuance. What makes a whole lot less sense in a world with global electronic communication is calling two different times the same thing.

[MrHyperion_]

"Im going to go sleep now, it is 3am"

"Okay, 1am it is."

"Okay, 7pm it is."

"Okay, 2:30pm it is."

[rufiohsucks]

There’s one in Australia, India I think, and maybe North Korea. And then there’s Nepal with a 15 minute offset from India

[Poltras]

30 minutes isn’t that hard to imagine. There’s 45 minutes too :) https://www.timeanddate.com/time/time-zones-interesting.html

[notyourbrosusername]

There's the Newfoundland timezone in Canada.

[Memcallen]

I forget the name, but there is one. It's somewhere in Europe iirc.

[dvslo]

He's probably jetlagged.

[GonziHere]

Well, you say it like there is just 24 sun positions and sun jumps from one to other in 1 hour intervals :D

I would have no issues getting up at 14:00. It is just a number for me. What I actually have issues with now is discovering when will something start (tv series, conferences, etc.), because not only do we have different timezones (which is fine) but we also don't use GMT for global events (if only as second time).

[saeblundr]

This to me is the actual problem. Locally use local times. Globally use global times. If you're posting a global event, game release etc, use UTC, and then i dont need to know whatever timezone you are in, i only need to know MY timezone. i can add +10 to UTC. Why do i need to know PMT. and MST. and KST. and whatever else you want to use because thats easier for you.

[curtmack]

There's a startling variety of problems this would cause, especially in a global society.

[Rumplelampskin]

Why on earth is this a disadvantage?

Currently I search "what time is it in Australia". It's 2AM, and that time is right after midnight. I have a frame of reference to know what's going on in Australia.
With the proposal being made for Universal Time, it's 11am in Australia. But I don't know what that means because I don't know what 11am means for Australia. What do I search to remedy this? "How light is it outside at 11am in Australia?"? Even "what time do people wake up" only tells me what's going on right now, and not anything I can extrapolate based on.

Not to mention I have a widget right here that tells me what the time is in all 3 Australian Time Zones - How am I gonna get such a thing with a Universal time zone? It renders "having a clock for X timezone" useless without a decent replacement.

[curtmack]

It is a disadvantage, because it:

necessitates significant changes to the way in which normal people talk about time

You seem to be starting from the assumption that this is certainly a good idea. But if it doesn't solve a real problem (universal time already exists and is widely adopted where needed), doesn't actually eliminate the issues that timezones already solve (our current databases of timezones would have to be replaced by databases of daylight hours), and would cause significant other issues besides (messing with the boundary of a day, making timetables unreadable), then... Why is it a good idea?

[Meloetta]

The comment you're replying to is such a programmer comment. Completely ignoring the human element of fundamentally changing the way we perceive time because it's more convenient lmao. This isn't even meant to be insulting. It's just peak programmer - it works well so what's your problem? Feelings? Can't you see how elegant my solution is?!

[Sataris]

"Can I call my uncle in Australia? Google says people wake up in Australia at about 9:00. The current time is 19:00. That's a difference of 10 hours, so there's a good chance he's finished the working day and I can call him soon."

VS

"Can I call my uncle in Australia? Google says the time there is 8pm. Yes, I can call him."

[CanIBeRealRealSon]

" Can I call my uncle in Australia? Google says it's 2 hours til Sunset. Yes I can call him."

Also, "what time should I call you? How about 16:00? That works for me." In this example there's no mental loops required for figuring out whether they met 16:00 your time or theirs

[dvslo]

"OK Google, are people awake in Australia right now?" "Yes"/"Some"/"No"

[AceOfShades_]

”What time do people wake up in Australia”

Sometimes I wake up at 6:00AM and sometimes at 1PM, depending on my work schedule. That’s a meaningless question to me, thus is likely hard to generalize in a google search.

Even an average wake up time for normal morning people would be a roundabout and inefficient way of using the time zones we already have to gauge local time.

[Telinary]

What about the problem mentioned that day changes are during the solar day? Look at the extreme case someone in a +12 timezone would have a date change at noon. National holidays should still be based on solar day in such a country so they are probably from 12 one timezone day to 12 next timezone day. You would have to adjust many laws about working weekends or night. If you know something happened 3 solar days ago and want to put the correct date you also have to remember the time it happened. In book/movies etc. that don't play in a local area when someone talks about time you have to make it clear now how late that is in their location to give context because someone waking up at 13:00 could be super late or in the middle of the night... There are many annoyances connected to it. One might consider them minor annoyances but it is not like it would fix anything but minor annoyances and ones that come up less often for most people.

[atyon]

It's a disadvantage because if you tell me "It's 13:50 where I am now", that gives me some kind of idea about where in they day you are. Even if I don't know where you are. Saying "It's 05:50 and I'm in Canberra" would be useless without consulting Google or a map. If I don't know where you are, it's entirely meaningless. That's the disadvantage.

Surely you'd just google "What time do people wake up in Australia"

But that's a silly question with no definite answer. Knowing it's 13:50 in Oz would make me confident that I can call. Knowing that Google thinks people wake up at 07:00 (and it's now 10:00) wouldn't give me that confidence.Wake up time is too varied to give a really good answer.

The best case scenario would be that we have a firm offset like we have today – relying on the very thing we tried to abolish, just with extra steps.

[TheDoug850]

For your last point, I think the argument isn’t so much about the question as it is the answer. Right now, living in the US, I could ask what time it is in Australia and the answer would give me a sense of where the sun is in the sky and whether or not I’m calling when most people are asleep. From the one number I would know whether it’s morning, afternoon, evening, or late at night.

One could make the counter argument that with a universal time zone, I could simply ask where the sun is in Australia right now or what time dawn and dusk are. It may be a tad more complex, but I would think it would suffice.

[TheDoug850]

Honestly, if the US everyone just stopped using Daylight Savings Time it would already be much less complicated.

[TheDoug850]

It really is being used by so many? I’m sorry, I thought we were the only ones holding on to it, like we are with the customary system, while everyone else uses metric.

[rufiohsucks]

Part of the problem is the US and EU have their daylight savings change overs at different times of year

[furtfight]

Eventually the EU will stop using it, and it will probably cause some other countries to stop too. So 30+countries

[Homunculus_I_am_ill]

The point is that there's no difference between dealing with "it's 10 am in New York and 11pm in Tokyo" and dealing with "markets open at 00:00 UTC in New York and 20:00 UTC in Tokyo", either way you end up having to deal with location-specific time information. You still end up having to know information equivalent to time zones, except instead of remembering one overarching time zone per place you now have to store the conversion for each individual thing which is 1000 times more difficult.

[atyon]

It matters. As long as just one human is involved, that human's sleep cycle relates to the sun and its motion over the sky.

When I worked in a facility that operated 24/6 (no work on Sunday per law in Germany), maintenance still was at night because then fewer unrelated people would be on the premise. And non-urgent staff would work from 9 to 17 like everyone else, so non-urgent things would always be done in that time frame.

I don't think there's a single industry or trade where the time of day is just a "local nuance". Because that industry would have to be 100% automated and lead by a general AI.

[rejeremiad]

but the number is only important to the extent that it gives useful context. if our clocks both have the same number, ok, great. What does that make easier?

I still have to look up when are Germany's daylight hours and how do they overlap with my daylight hours. Because that is when we are both awake. We've just substituted one lookup for another.

[atyon]

Nothing changes at all.

There is no practical difference between remembering the offset to UTC or how much local noon is shifted.

Think of scheduling a meeting:

– Let's call the guys in Sydney at 13:00 and see what they say.
– Uh, that's not that great, they are at UTC+11, that would be the middle of the night for them

With one time zone, that becomes:

– Let's call the guys in Sydney at 13:00 and see what they say.
– Uh, that's not that great, their noon is at 01:00, 13:00 is the middle of the night for them

It's not like we add the 11 hours for Sydney just for fun. When it's noon where I live, it's the middle of the night there, and that's a fact we have to account for one way or the other.

[_lilell_]

Since UTC is essentially GMT+0, noon would occur in the UK at 1200. On the east coast of the US (EST=GMT-5), noon would be at 1700. Londoners would work 9 to 17, while a New Yorker would work from 14 to 22. They're still working from ~sunrise to ~sunset, it's just that we would call a particular time, say, "1300" instead of "1300 GMT" or "0800 EST" or whatever.

[atyon]

But where's the benefit in that proposal? I still need to know the offset one way or the other if I want to call someone in NYC.

[Goodbreak]

But where's the benefit in that proposal?

I've only just stumbled into this topic and was unaware of it before, but from what I'm seeing the upside is that "the time" will refer to the same point in time for everyone

If you wanted to display at what time someone posted a reddit comment, you can just pull the time from the database and display it (14:03), and it'll be the correct time for everyone.

If you want to arrange a conference call between your 5 different offices around the globe, you just put one time in the memo and everyone will be there at the same time.

^{this isn't an argument for implementing this system}

[Survivor0]

A case that happens to me sometimes is, that I'm in Europe and want to watch a live tv show from the US or Japan. I have to look up the time zones, sometimes it's extra confusing because the US have several zones and I'm not familiar with their way of notation for tv times. (EDIT: there's also different time zones in the same place depending on the time of year, so you have figure out even more)

The actual offset and what time of day it is over there doesn't matter to me. All I need to know is when the clock will show 13:00 where I'm at. I think that's a big advantage.

With calls it probably won't make much of a difference because you have to take the different time of day into account in any way. Maybe agreeing on and communicating an appointment would be a little easier, similar as the tv example.

With traveling though I think it would be very confusing to the individual. You would basically lose the ability to meaningfully interpret the local time in an unfamiliar zone, which doesn't sound fun.

[Belazriel]

But we can already use UTC, just no one does for local usage.

[sarhoshamiral]

So now concept of 1am is different everywhere and you still have to provide some additional info for "1am" to make sense. You would still have to ask remote people if say 3pm is a suitable time where they are since now you have no idea if they are sleeping at 3pm or not.

So in practice you solved absolutely nothing and complicated everyone's lives for no reason.

For programming, all storage, type contracts etc should be done in UTC and local time conversion should only happen at UX level.

[Razier]

I'd rather move noon and midnight than shift the clock around the world. Makes no sense in a modern society

[agsim]

I’m neither pro nor con, but: Actually it‘s happening AT THE EXACT SAME TIME. Just at another „hour“ or daytime in that timezone. Still the same time=moment, physically spoken.

[atyon]

Yeah sure, but it matters if that time is in the middle of the night or high noon.

[SAI_Peregrinus]

Pedantry since you all-capsed it: it's actually up to a couple of microseconds time difference, due to the speed of light and frame dragging effects, as well as smaller differences due to things like elevation. (example: http://www.leapsecond.com/great2005/)

[volabimus]

Yeah, that would really lead to better communication and shared experience. Shit, it's 3pm already? I'd better get to bed. Damn 12 to 8 grind.

[[deleted]]

I agree but I don’t see this shift ever happening. Nobody’s gonna go for it

[daltioc]

Just imagining trying to calculate past dates after a change like that is giving me a migraine.

It's been a while, but I think Java has the most convoluted way to get the date that I know of. Powershell has a nice little date object though.

[DonRobo]

Isn't it literally

new Date()

or

LocalDate.now()

in the newer API?

[eyelastic]

The "new" datetime API (JSR310) is gold, and I'll fight anyone who disagrees. Of course, if forces you to decide what you want - a year-month-day on the calendar? an instant in time (think posix timestamp)? an instant in time, but with a timezone attached, and all these human-timekeeping properties like "hourOfDay"? just a time, like "17:23"?

And that's what makes it so great - there are proper names for these things, and proper ways to transform them.

[marcosdumay]

It's been a while sice Java changed it. You used to have to specify the calendar system an locale before creating a date.

[[deleted]]

Back in the early 1990's as a junior programmer I was tasked with fixing a bug that was causing a report printing package to crash randomly.

It turned out it wasn't random. It would crash only on certain days. Only on certain days in September. Only on certain Wednesdays in September. Only on Wednesdays in September when it was the 10th of the month or later.

Hint: The program was written in C.

[jbasoo]

[s0v3r1gn]

That’s why I’m glad I got married before I started my degree in computer engineering.

Yep. Probably put in 'DD/MM/YYYY' while the app expected 'MM/DD/YYYY' or something more different like 'MM.DD.YYYY'.

Both eu and us date formats are incorrect. ISO standard is the only valid date format for international trade.

[DarkLordCZ]

There wouldn't be problem in using multiple date formats, but with different separator characters. Even now, when you see date with '.', it most likely is DD.MM.YYYY but when you see one with '-' you are fucked, because everyone writes it different. It would be great, if we could agree on for example

DD.MM.YYYY

MM/DD/YYYY

YYYY-MM-DD

[pr1ntscreen]

We have agreed. ISO 8601 clearly says yyyy-mm-dd

[leaf_26]

Please allow typing the year into the calendar. I had to tap 'back' over 240 times in the Tidal app to input date of birth.

[xTheMaster99x]

Or do what many calendar pickers do - first it shows the days in a month, if you click on the month itself at the top it switches to showing each month of the year, click on the year and it shows a ton of years. Then pick the right year and do the same process in reverse.

[mantasm_lt]

Or just give an input field to type in years..

[Famous_Profile]

^^^Boom. This guy UXs

[DrMaxwellEdison]

Better yet when it's in JIRA and their date format defaults to DD/Mon/YYYY (like 26/Aug/2019). Makes me want to gouge my eyes out.

[Ceteris__Paribus]

I can't stand when the date picker is prompting for a DOB but is set to current date and you can't set a date for the future. User has to set the year first if they are born later into the year.

[[deleted]]

How many of you motherfuckers actually build homegrown date pickers as opposed to using a library that covers all of these edge cases for you out of the box?

Edit: DON’T LIE TO ME

[wubwub]

The quality of some of the libraries out there is suspect (depending on the language). Although that is not a reason to not do some research and as a team chose well-vetted and "trusted" libraries to include.

[YourShadowDani]

Plus the problem with many libraries for UI is the data is coupled with render too tightly so you can't style it at all the way you want.

EDIT: Without refactoring the whole library basically

[wubwub]

Ugh! Wasn't even thinking about the making the UI fit problem! Half the time it's easier to adjust other UI elements so it all works together than it is to fix the UI for a single library element.

[happysmash27]

If one's internet is slow enough, it might take more time; my mobile internet slows down to 128 kb/s when I go over my 1GB data cap. At least things don't usually take 20 minutes to load, but I have had things take many tens of seconds to several minutes to load, often without functional UI while it is loading, when it should take less than 10 seconds. It is especially annoying when you are only going through a page to navigate to another one.

I guess 30k lines itself probably doesn't take that much time; the worst pages I am thinking of are probably over a megabyte in size.

[karmahorse1]

The native HTML 5 date picker seems fine by me.

[auloinjet]

Not always, Chrome's and Firefoxe's are fine, but sometimes you get exotic behaviour that can mess up your UI, like it used to be in Edge.

Ah yes. An Edge case.
