America being backwards and dumb in many ways doesn’t make them unimportant.

- when the 4 digit year is first, it’s obvious month is second. So 2024-01-02, for example, is definitely jan second and not Feb first (unless you’re insane)
- you can name things with the date first and an alphabetical sort will automatically sort the files by date (you can’t always sort by date and sometimes you actually want a mixed sort like this
Whoo! ISO-8601 fanclub reporting for duty!

We are everywhere. Give up yourself, resistance is futile!
