Say Goodbye to Outdated Footer Years, Forever (getfullyear.com) 6 points by threepointone 1y ago ↗ HN
[–] DHPersonal 1y ago ↗ The manual footer years are helpful; I see them as an indicator of when they were last updated. [–] HeyTomesei 1y ago ↗ Agreed. As a recruiter, it's a useful signal:If the company hasn't updated it within 2 weeks of the new year, I add it to my priority target list. [–] jerlam 1y ago ↗ If the company hasn't updated their banner by April, I start thinking they're out of business.
