Brilliant? Americans have severe problems with all kind of things (like metric units) and always assume that the rest of the world has them as well.

You could have just stopped there.

Errr... the entire world deals with time zones and a good portion of the Western world deals with some form of daylight savings.
But you just go ahead and feel smug if it lets you sleep at night.

Just use military (ZULU) time and your problems will disappear.

I think that the PC term is "issues".
we wouldn't want to be non-PC, now, would we?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

That's nothing... canadians have to deal with a group of angry hamsters that from time to time get drunk and start playing with the electronical circuits and the cables... that, and not to mention Sean

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

It's not time zones, it's the damn daylight saving time changes.

Received it yesterday after discussing an issue with time zones related to capturing values from multiple sites across multiple time zones.
The server with the data does not observe daylight saving time, but many other servers do, so.. we needed to resolve an issue with data aggregation across time periods.
The project manager forwarded the link after the meeting with the comment, "Seems appropriate"

Oceanlab - Sirens of the sea (Above & Beyonds Original Mix)[^]
This weeks sound is the same as last weeks sound, except that it's a different mix which basically makes it a completely different sound
Last week was all relaxed and chill out vocal trance while this week's sound is more club and deep house.
Yet, same lyrics and melody

I listen a lot to Ori Uplift on Youtube. Helps me focus.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

And, any news about your new job ?

Had a second talk yesterday, everything went well.
They'll follow up with an offer today.
Based on that offer I can go to company A or company B.
So the only thing I'm currently still sure about is that I'm quitting my job next month

Fingers crossed
