It’s accounted for just like any other leap year, add it to the end of a month. Most calendar models make it July 29. It’s also worth noting that this is actually 360 days, and there are 5 days at the end of each year that’s basically a universal holiday

That would just be new year. I’ve already have a list ready for how to name all the months, so we don’t fuck it up like September being the 9. Month again.

Which breaks “day of week = day modulo 7” if every month starts on Monday and not every month has the same number of days

  In this scheme, new years day and leap days are not any day of the week or part of any month. They exist outside of the regular calendar as obvious and explicit resets to the remainder problem.

    My point exactly. So the programmer who commented above me is wrong in saying it makes it easier for them

    No, still easier. They are still part of the year, so you can just count them, put them in their own special no name month if you like, and the logic is still easier than the mess we currently have.

  Look, short of changing Earth’s orbit, something’s not gonna line up no matter what you do. Extra-weekly days are as good a compromise as any in my book.

  Leap day and new year day are supposed to not be a week day in this system
