RFC 3339 if you please. Let's be prescriptive.
After all the self-important blowhards in the committe were satisified that they had put their fingerprint on the ISO8601 document with bullshit like "year-month-week" format support and signed off, they went home.
The rest stayed behind, waited a few minutes to be safe, and then quickly made RFC3339 like a proper standard.
This is what RFC3339 vs ISO8601 feels like.

I’m now imagining a child who must write
2026-05-10T10:06:09.426792Zon all of their tests.Microsecond precision is fine for most use cases, but I teach my kids to use nanoseconds.

MM/DD/YY for me.
Edit: I learned something new today.
MM/YY for me. People can figure out the day of month themselves.

This fucknuts who thinks day should come before year, hah!
Give me YYYY-MM-DD, because dashes are better than slashes any day of the week. -

Hello, Y2K called, this is literally what caused it. Years stored in 2-digits had to be fixed on every computer on the planet before the calendar rolled to 2000. (People thought nukes would fly, glitches would crash the stock market and the world was going to end)

That's a tough one. I would have to say April 25. Because it's not too hot, not too cold, all you need is a light jacket.

Fucking wild.

I'm giving you a pity upvote lol

DD-MM-YYYY-HH-MM-SS
Makes no sense!
I prefer the alphabetical date format
DD-HH-MM-SS-mm-yyfor maximum confusion -

When talking about the date with another human, DD/MM (+YYYY if required); when doing anything related to the sorting of files by date, YYYY/MM/DD.

The O is for the kind of whooshing sound
I see it now FML. Editing my comment.

Waiting for the ISO 8601 & 9001 gang to show up and promote YYYY-MM-DD.
Edit: That took seconds, a very punctual bunch.
ISO 8601/RFC-3339 (Unix Epoch also acceptable) gang reporting in.

As a big ISO 8601 guy myself, I request explanation of this 9001 addition? Never heard of it till now and am optimistic
Seconded. Not coming up with much when trying to find out more about it.

Upvoted, because never blame someone who learned something new.
YYYY-MM-DD is for Files
DD.MM.YYYY is for writing a date down.

Fucking wild.
While a fucking stupid concept, it's nice that this particular format has a monetary deterrent.

I'm the only one annoyed about DD/MM/YYYY not being a date, but a date "format"?
Not only it's a recycled joke, it doesn't even make sense.

Quality Management Systems, unsure what it has to do with 8601, but guess the fanboy venn diagram overlaps
