It's astounding to me how much real trauma, work and fuss have to go into adjusting the software to compensating for the "new DST."
I honestly wish we had done away with this nonsense decades ago. But finances run the world and it is the financiers who gave us the new DST for whatever purposes they see it as useful. Frankly, whatever they gain is not worth what all of those who need to constantly shift our time frames lose.
What is DST?
Dear Jack,
Daylight Savings Time. At my place there is a great deal more trouble over it than there ever had been over Y2K because of the patches it requires to moderate dates/times on which our entire file
storage system depends sensitively.
shalom,
Steven
