Agreed. If I had it my way, basically everything would be using unix time.
I refuse to believe anything before Jan 1 1970 even happened
And if anything did happen, it wasn't any good.
Signed integers are the best integers.
Agh you sound like a C programmer. Just have a function do it for you.
I'm actually full stack C#
I just want 13 metric weeks.
Seasons get a wee bit tricky with 13 as the number of weeks.
How so? They are based on equinoxes and solstices.
but 13 weeks doesn't divide nicely into the equinoxes, so seasons will start at weird times in the weeks. 12 Months is divisible by 4 so seasons can begin at the same day every 3 months.
What would Unix time improve? Yeah let's schedule to meet at 1693456789, repeating every 7*86,400 seconds.
Time zones are a mess, but that's not the fault of the calendar.
