Nothing beats ISO 8601, YYYY-MM-DD
-
RFC 3339! ISO 8601 has way too many weird formats that are allowed like today would be 2023-W41-2. See for example here.
-
I feel offended - W%W-%w is my preferred way of noting down dates :D
-
Whoa, that's a cool website!
-
It’s really pleasing seeing the seconds all change in unison!

-
Great, now I need to memorize "RFC 3339", because I officially have a new favorite date format. Thank you!
-
Fortunately this one is easy:
three threes equals 9 3339
-
-
RFC 3339 when you need the basics, ISO 8601 when you need something more niche. Some applications genuinely need to view the year as weeks and days of the week instead of months and days of the month.

YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS-00:00
THE ONE TRUE FORMAT
-
Well, the standard provides various formats, such as YYYY-\WWW.
-
BCE or AD?
-
Does the T just signify that Time starts after it? I've never really examined the full UTC format, YYYY-MM-DD has always been enough for my uses.
-
The T stands for the timezone.
-
Aaaah that makes a lot of sense.
-
-
-
-
I am fine with any format that puts the month between year and day.
-
Same, but MSD->LSD is nice in general for the alphanumeric ordering
-
-
This is the way.
-
The most logical format, especially for digital files.
-
This is the way.
Put the most significant digits first. Always.
-
100%
- alphabetical order = chronological order
- unambiguous regardless of locale
- easy to read/parse by either machine or human

My head hurts
