minus-squareOlgratin_Magmatoe@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year ago at least computer scientists, would argue against the efficacy and accuracy of the Gregorian calendar. Agreed. If I had it my way, basically everything would be using unix time.

minus-squaretetelestia@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoSigned integers are the best integers.
minus-squareNouveau_Burnswick@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoI just want 13 metric weeks.
minus-squareTavarin@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoSeasons get a wee bit tricky with 13 as the number of weeks.
minus-squareNouveau_Burnswick@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-21 year agoHow so? They are based on equinoxes and solstices.
minus-squareTavarin@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agobut 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.

minus-squaretetelestia@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoWhat 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.
