I think you've misunderstood what's changing here. It's not a matter of time zones not knowing that rules vary across time. It's a matter of knowing that "the rules for 2022" vary over time as well - in that the rules I…
I've mentioned a few times to MS folks that I'd be very happy for the mscorlib team to make Noda Time redundant. They haven't bitten yet though.
Well, my C# book (C# in Depth) has been well received. I'd like to think my date/time library for .NET (Noda Time) is mostly well-written. But no, nothing that I'd expect to put me in the top 15 (or top 1500)…

> The biggest issue with idolizing people this much in my opinion is that it puts a huge divide between you and that idol. If it's any help, I'd be happy to give a huge list of bugs I've caused due to inexperience and…
If you want to indicate a time zone you shouldn't just use the offsets - they're ambiguous in that several different time zones can have the same offset at any point in time. Better (IMO) to use the zoneinfo ID, e.g.…
I wonder if it deals with Sweden properly if you're there. cal 2 1712 should show February 30th... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/February_30#Swedish_calendar
Oh there are plenty of time zones which aren't "on the hour". But most of them either don't observe DST or are unimaginitive about it. I was far more impressed by Nepal's proposal (later dropped, I believe) to have a…
I only tick in .NET. In Java I millisecond instead.
