As a software engineer, I would like to add that we are done dealing with time and dates and Martians and Moonfolk better pick UTC and shut up or they aren’t touching the database.

If I have to build a new Python library for relativistic drift, I might actually punch a bitch. 😆

Seriously though, if I had a dollar for every time someone asked me to do the impossible just because I'm a software engineer, I don't know that I'd be rich, but I would have a decent amount of money.
