  1. Date Arithmetic with Leap Year?!

    Leap years BREAK date math! February 28 + 1 day = February 29 in leap years, March 1 in non-leap years. This edge case will cause bugs!

  3. A #leapYear starting on #Wednesday is any year with 366 days (i.e. it includes #29February) that begins on Wednesday 1 #January and ends on #Thursday 31 #December. Its #dominicalLetters hence are ED. The most recent year of such kind was 2020, and the next one will be 2048 in the #GregorianCalendar, or likewise, 2004 and 2032 in the obsolete #JulianCalendar, see below for more. Any leap year that starts on Wednesday has two #FridayThe13ths: those two in this leap year #occurInMarch.

    365.
    That's how many times i mentioned #hurricanrana so far.

    Been keeping track for a year.
    Might mention them a bit less from now on as next i will be keeping track of unique #WrestlingChants

    Using the same #findInPage method i think the #rana'est #wrestler is possibly #Penta (formerly of Aew, now with #Wwe) with 22 mentions.

    The most ranas in a single event goes to #Aew's #GrandSlamMexico with 17.

    That's a #Ranadar wrap for now so catch ya on tha flipsyde...

    --

    Penta is just making his way to the ring now on #Raw so i'm guessing we might have at least one more rana...

    Now #BronBreakker is walking in so we may have a #frankensteiner as well...

    Sure enough, Penta rana'd Bron, so 366.
    We have a #leapYear!

    ...and Bron with a Steiner Special, that's 367 for the year!

  10. @chess7th.fosstodon.org.ap.brid.gy I always knew that leap years were bad and down to the last minute awful, but this 2024 was another beast... It started in 2023...! I really hope it doesn't have any juice of bad surprises left for 2025... #leapYear

  11. @natejung is SILO dropping in on go or is it weekly? I'll be waiting for the entire season before subbing.

    As for what I'm playing, I picked up #LeapYear and #MindOverMagnet last night so I'm going to jump into one of those after taking a few days off any games.

  15. WWHATT?!? One year ago this morning, I awoke and started work at KTVQ in Billings. It's been the fastest year in history, and it's even a leap year! Now, on to year two at Q2!

  17. I guess it’s Olympics time again. And election year here. And leap year. I think that’s a conspiracy that they all fall together each time.

  21. Surprised I didn't share this weeks ago. In February, my kids were curious how many days were in a leap year. So they asked Alexa. Alexa straight up says there are 370 days in a leap year. Confused, I reworded the question and asked "There are 366 days in a leap year, correct?" and Alexa stated that was correct. But just asking it how many days are in a leap year gives a clearly wrong answer. And people say AI is the future.

  24. EDIT: fixed (for now) - thanks to everyone for all the help!

    ------------------

    I guess I'll put this out there since now I've met @guffo who's having the same issue.

    My work laptop is Windows 10 and after Leap Day this year, my Teams shows meetings a day ahead for some reason on the calendar, but with the correct date on the meeting itself. Nearly missed a meeting Monday, but luckily since the day itself is correct on the meeting, it notified me and I noticed it. All the meetings still just show on the wrong day - a full day ahead.

    Tried restarting Teams, the whole machine, nothing. Can find NOTHING about it online anywhere. Any ideas to fix are welcome, or anyone else dealing with this, or anyone else who wants to talk about how shitty Teams is. 😂

  30. Buongiorno da @github e oggi la supply chain security si arricchisce di una nuova minaccia, la repo confusion! Vediamo il grosso problema che affligge GitHub. E in più, l'ennesima prova che informatici e gestione delle date sono nemici giurati, come gli inglesi e gli scozzesi, o come gli irlandesi e gli scozzesi, o come i salentini e gli scozzesi.

    "Ask HN: Did you encounter any leap year bugs today?"

  32. Even with an added Leap Day in February this year, I STILL can't believe March starts tomorrow! 😮

  34. Today I fixed a #LeapDay bug.

    The code was in a module ironically named "RFC3339Parser".

    It had the right logic for #leapyear. It had the right logic for computing what day-of-year it was for every single day in any year....except Leap Day. It double-counted Leap Day.

    The method was only about 15 lines long.

    How does someone write that #code and just fail to test it? And then name the module hubristically?

    Furthermore, the fix made the code both easier to understand *and* shorter.
