(By the way, I’m not the author.)

“Meta does not use your phone’s microphone for ads and we’ve been public about this for years,” the statement read.

Date field placement in any order other than most-significant-digits-first is not only counterintuitive, but needlessly complicated to work with. Omitting critical information like the century is ambiguous and confusing.

We don’t live in isolated villages any more. Mixing and matching those problems by accepting all the world’s various regional and personal date styles, especially with no reliable indication of which ones apply in any given case, leads to the hodgepodge of error-prone date madness that we have today.

Please don’t make assumptions about my data integrity needs.

But thanks for clarifying what you meant.

Do you mean that you think bit flips are inconsequential, or that the rate of bit flips is inconsequential?

I wonder if anyone has studied the rate of cosmic ray-induced bit flips in a PC with a side window case vs. an all metal one.
