You sure?
Everywhere?

You have to be accurate about these things, and I'm just guessing but I see some flaws in your code:
1) It isn't the same date everywhere: some countries use a different calender[^].
2) The planet is round (well, an oblate spheroid) and the date changes at midnight local time.
3) In twenty four hours or less, this post will out of date, and factually incorrect.
The only instant messaging I do involves my middle finger.

English doesn't borrow from other languages.
English follows other languages down dark alleys, knocks them over and goes through their pockets for loose grammar.
