i favour manually altering the earth's rotational and orbital characteristics to eliminate leap seconds while we're at it let's go for a 360-day year

OBAMA BIN LinkedIn posted:everybody should just use one timezone and one timezone only and get over their stupid 'ughhg i work at 9 and leave at 5' attitude this. there are so many dumb complications when we could just go "ok i guess the sun sets at 11 AM here and that doesn't really matter because we loving have electricity now"

what we really need to do is get rid of this sun thing that keeps imposing its timezone on us

Just live far enough up north or down south that days and nights are 6 months a year, so that you can just pick any drat time zone you please and use that. Works very well for Iceland.

Posting Principle posted:can we go back to having roman style executive appointed holidays? just 14 days a year that the president gets to insert into the calendar at his whim really up to the modern age people didn't work that much the romans had like 150 holidays a year when you include all their religious festivals and poo poo. medieval world wasn't that much different. 6 and 7 day work weeks sound terrible until you realize you will spend half the "working" days partying

fritz posted:how long until the earths rotation slows enough that well have to start skipping seconds to catch up instead of putting in leap seconds you've got it backwards, the fact that the rotation is slowing down means that we need to put leap seconds in. the question is how long will it be until there are 86400.5 seconds in a day on average. nobody knows the answer to that b/c stuff that changes the mass distribution can affect the rotation speed b/c of conservation of angular momentum

Timezones are the easy bit, scheduling is the hard bit. How do you send out an invite for a skype meeting on the 1st Tuesday of every month when you're not even sure if everyone has "Tuesdays"? Would all be solved if they just taught the truth of 4 day earth rotation in schools though.
