yyyy-mm-dd and confusion no more.

This. On top of being obvious at a glance, your file names and folder names sort nicely if use this format.

Good taste,
YYYY-MM-DDis obviously superior-
I too agree with the woman

ISO-8601 / RFC-3339 is clearly superior, but at least DD/MM/YYYY has a rational ordering, unlike MM/DD/YYYY.

Dont know if it's true or not, but I always assumed it was because the numbers get bigger left to right. Only 12 months, 30ish days, thousands of years.

My guess is it’s because that’s the order in which we usually say dates in English: September twentieth, twenty-twenty-four.

I, too, am an 8601 enthusiast. Stupid America means we need to go y-m-d for date ordering to not be ambiguous.

Why do some people insist on doing big-endian dates? Little-endian (YYYY-MM-DD) is trivially alphanumerically sortable. Also, it’s part of the goddamn ISO standard for standardized date format.

Which is why the guy in the comic will "die single".

You've got your endians mixed up. Big-endian means the most significant value comes first. ISO8601 is big-endian.
