ISO 8601 is paywalled RFC allows a space instead of a T (e.g. 2020-12-09 16:09:…) which is nicer to read.
minus-squareSirQuackTheDuck@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up8·11 months agoDoesn’t the ISO also includes time periods? Because if it does, those are amazing. Without any explanation, you should be able to decypher these periods just by looking at them: P1Y P6M2D P1DT4H PT42M
minus-squareKilling_Spark@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up1·11 months agoHmm I don’t get the T there tbh
minus-squareSirQuackTheDuck@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·11 months agoIt makes the difference between M meaning month or M meaning minute. Small differences.
minus-squareKilling_Spark@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up1·11 months agoSo it’s redundant in P1DT4H? Or is it a mandatory separator between ymd and hms?
minus-squareSirQuackTheDuck@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·11 months agoIt’s mandatory, which also makes it nice and predictable.
