UTC and ISO 8601, or GTFO
Posted by jpluimers on 2022/11/08
Always schedule your meetings in UTC, and use ISO-8601 date and time notation. Because time zone conversions are hard, especially with so many daylight saving time conventions.
I want not just a “UTC or GTFO” shirt, but a “UTC and ISO-8601, or GTFO” shirt.
It means I do not agree with [Archive.is] Colin Nederkoorn on Twitter: “Pro tip: Don’t schedule recurring meetings in UTC if you live in a place with daylight savings.… “ with multi-time zone teams: having it in UTC will balance out the DST changes over the teams.
Some more relevant Tweets that triggered me writing this post:
- [Archive.is] Florian Haas on Twitter: “Weekly team meeting at 0800 UTC, as usual. Part of the team shifted off DST this weekend, the rest did not. Everyone showed up on time; nobody needed a reminder that the meeting is one hour earlier in their local timezone. In globally distributed teams, UTC works. Just use it.”
