Today would have been a good day for Chrome to release its 100th version.

Hm. We had one 2-digit date earlier this month, previous ones in 2020, 2002 and 2000, and before that... 1999, 1919, 1911, 1888, 1818, 1811, etc.

1-digit ones way back on 1111/11/11, 1111/1/1, 999/9/9, etc. Future ones in 2222, 3333, etc., and then a 11,111 year gap from 11111 to 22222.

Did I miss any? I’m going back to sleep now.

I was looking for a way to celebrate, so I opened by Bible and counted how many books had 22nd chapters... and there were 22! I geeked out a bit.

So this morning at 2:22:22am I did a tweet thread where I posted the 22nd verse of each chapter 22 and added a sentence or two of commentary.

Edit: Some of those chapters didn't have 22 verses, in which cases I used the 2nd verse.

Here it is, if you're into that sort of thing: https://twitter.com/PatrickDobson/status/1496022538580897793

And Twosday

Ah. It's 22:25 in Australia. When's the next one?

The key moment today is clearly this, a proper palindrome:

22:02:20 22/02/2022

For most sensible countries... the US doesn't get celebrate it due the silly date format.

Edit:

Actually there is this one in ISO 8601 which is the one and true date time format:

2022-02-22T20:22:02

Greetings from GMT+2.

Todays date (22/02/2022) is both a palindrome and an ambigram as per british date format.

Not to mention it's TUEsday! So there's also a homophone in there.

And it is my son's 12th birthday today. He's my second child too since we're on the subject of Two's.

It's Cat Day in Japan

Today is also my son’s 10 birthday!

"Today is the last date with only two digits until 2111/1/1."

"Today is 2022/02/22"

If you're using the same format as in the title, then that's not true due to the preceeding zeros.
