Comment on Go Date Format

Comments

I appreciate the "flipping" version but why such an obnoxiously immature primary domain?

To be honest, I find your tutting about vulgarity in someone's cheat-sheet to be more obnoxious than the swearing.

I thought that children were the ones not allowed to curse :-)

Same sentiment here. In fact, "flipping" makes more sense, even literally, since it's like "flipping the date format" into Go's.

I agree with you (and upvoted you). The reasons is simple to express emotion and obviously to get attention.

A little bit of history. I don't remember exactly when in the 90's it changed but at a certain point there were actually certain words banned from being used in domain registrations.

Isn't that censorship? Maybe that's why it changed...
