    Please also lets use the International fixed calendar where every month has exactly 28 days/4 weeks and the year has 13 months. Every 1st of the month is a sunday, every 2nd is a monday and so on, so you will always know which day it is by the number.

    The leftover day is a dedicated new years day.

      Would be nice to realign September, October, November, and December as the 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th months respectively

        time is stored as seconds since epoch anyways, the computer systems can easily survive by just converting to metric time when displaying. It’s the systems that cares about week/month that hates it

      12 Month are better for dividing a year, which is often needed. I know it will never change, but I propose 12 30-day month and 5,25 extra days at the end of a year. Also 5-day weeks or 10 day weeks and every year starts with the same day.

      How do you write the date for the “leftover” day? Like, thinking about dates in Excel.

        You have your dates in excel? I usually go to a restaurant or the the club with them, but I guess the youngsters today date in excel.

        1/14. Easy

        If programs can handle February having 28 days, sometimes 29. It can handle 14 having 1 day, sometimes 2.
