    Related: 12-hour AM/PM time, at least in written language, is dumb compared to 24-hour time. I don’t want to have to infer from context if 8 is morning or evening. Build that disambiguation into the written time, ffs!

      yes!! I’m a fan of 24-hour time, though we should honestly switch to metric time, I think we’re at least a second French revolution away from that happening 😅

        Still working on wrapping my mind around that.

        That said, I have wrapped my mind around 10-day weeks, which in work division work as follows:
        ⚒️⚒️🛋️⚒️⚒️🛋️⚒️⚒️🛋️🛋️
        Do this 12 times in a year, add a leap day every three months, say to start each season, plus another extra day for new year’s, and another extra according to existing leap year rules.
