Yeah, significant bit in my explanation shouldn’t be confused for endianness, that works like you explained. But I’m still of the opinion that iso8601 is best saved for when you need to save dates/datetimes or when confusion can occur. Human-to-human communication is more often than not informal and redundant information can be left out more often and that is where the significance of the bits comes in. Maybe I should have called it the importance of the parts to avoid confusion.
But save to say, I use iso8601 most often anyway. Who is communicating with other humans nowadays?

The sane ordering outside iso8601 revolves around the most significant bit. When you ask for the time, 34 minutes is usually not significant in any matter in written contexts since you could be reading it more than an hour later. Hence hours are more significant than minutes (verbal can often be an exception, “20 minutes past” can be enough context if someone asks for the time). But the “time” part of datetime is always more significant than the “date” part. The year is least significant since that one changes the least, then comes month, and lastly year. In many contexts knowing it is 14th of September is enough. In chats it might even be enough to say “14th” if you’re talking about a date in this very month. But due to the timespan between writing and reading, minutes more often than not is meaningless without hours, hence hours become more significant.
Of course HH:mm dd/mm/yyyy is inferior when it comes to computer parsing due to iso8601 being the easiest to sort. (And because of Americans it is the only format to cause no confusion). But it is going least significant first in the sense that you are presented with year first, something that is often redundant in human-to-human interaction (depending on context you might say year is more significant than time in the case of wanting to know when an article was released, but you know, there’s always more exceptions than rules).
So to sum it up: Use whatever date time format you want as long as you use a format fit for the context it is used in. Unless you’re saving it to a database/directory/etc. Then use iso8601 so I can easily sort it.

I share your sentiment but I’d rather go back and see for myself. The future is completely unknown, who knows if you’d land right on the front line in WWIII. At least in the past I have a vague idea of what parts of time to avoid landing in.

I actually had a job shelving books as a teenager. It is to date the best job I ever had. No one bothered me. I just took books from the return slots at the library and put them back for a few hours after school. Sometimes I even dared to get a list of reservations to find and shelve elsewhere.

- Comment on Drop your unpopular opinions here because c/unpopularopinions is filled with popular opinions 2 months ago:
Difference is that vibe coding doesn’t create 20% more CPU usage or 30% more RAM usage because it doesn’t understand the underlying mechanics (or, it could but that is not the important part). LLMs will happily provide you with solutions that consists of plain text password storage, leaking personal information through open APIs, and business crushing vulnerabilities. A sharp developer should ve able to catch that, but if you’re reviewing 5000+ line PRs daily that’s been spat out by LLMs it’ll be impossible to catch all failures. And for someone who doesn’t know all those nonfunctional requirements that a business absolutely must have it’ll become a nightmare for the receiver of the code.
So to be clear: For functional requirements LLMs are a bit better but still needs hand holding. For nonfunctional requirements they’re dog shit as that’s the part that more often has to explicitly be mentioned. And being able to identify nonfunctional requirements and when they’re not met is the difference between a junior dev and a 10+ year lead.

In Denmark all the gas stations started to panic during the last gas shortage because the signs only went up to 19.99, so they had to replace them with ones that could show 20 (DKK 20 = €2.67 = $3.07). We’re just about up there again.
