Leap year - every four years?

DST ATDT FTW. I like it getting dark at 9:30 in the summer time. Just set it to daylight savings time and let it be.












(Daylight savings time all the dang time for the win)

Well said brother! Love the long day light hours it should be standard.

because we aren’t a quarter of a day off every year, so that has to be made up for too. So 2100, 2200, 2300 aren’t leap years but 2000 and 2400 are. One of many reason date/times are hard in programming.

Note, to everyone, there is no such thing as daylight savings time. Common mistake, it’s daylight saving time. You horde daylight for a rainy day. Good thing or think how much cheaper than dirt would charge for daylight on cloudy days or winter.

365.2422 days per year I thought

When you live by daylight til dark thirty who cares what the clock says it is.
I went to school with a girl that was born on leap day we always gave her hell about it.

Lol, this is kinda spooky...

Just a couple days ago (literally this week) I was tinkering with a perpetual calender (plan on adding holiday capability from a text file), and saw my notes at the top of the code...

rem -- NOTE: The Gregorian calendar removes three leap days every 400
rem -- years, which is the length of its leap cycle. This is done by
rem -- removing February 29 in the century years (multiples of 100) that
rem -- cannot be exactly divided by 400. For example, the years 2000 and
rem -- 2400 are leap years, while 2100, 2200, and 2300 are common years.

As Louis L'Amour used to write in his books, the people of the old west worked from "can see to can't see." I'll add that they probably started doing chores and feeding of animals even before light.

My retirement mantra is that I go to bed when tired and wake up when not tired no matter what the clock says.

If I recall, 1600 was not a leap year.
