Like the American below, I generally use 30-December 2023 partly because I work with an international company but mostly because after the century rolled over and we had years that looked like months I got confused.

Had a boss that formatted all dates as YYYY-MM-DD because that makes them sort correctly in lists.

  • I work in an international company too! And yet, this confusion persists :-/

    I also format everything YYYY-MM-DD for my personal use too. When writing prose, usually some other format is just fine, but I really would love if everyone did year-month-day

    I insist on YYYY-MM-DD because it allows me to use "MM-DD" for short and piss off the euros
