  I switched after being in a job where “meeting at 6” or “I’ll get in at 9” was 50/50 am or pm and I got sick of guessing and sometimes being 12 hours off.

    I got out of the military and switched to 12 hour time when I was living a pure 8-5 work life. Now I work, and work with people at all hours, so I’ve switched back to 24 hour time, though I still speak in 12 hour time. If I’m scheduling something, it is in 24 hour time. If someone asks me what time it is, I’ll look at my phone and it will read 17:00 but I’ll say 5 without blinking.

  I’m regularly looking at log timestamps and I still need a very brief half second to think about the time lol

  Shouldn’t the system be storing timestamps in UTC anyway, and then displaying them in whatever localization settings you have?

    I meant more for my personalized reading through logs. Some of our systems do log in UTC without correction, and they’re sometimes annoying.
