#daylightsavingtime

Benefits of various time systems, ranked:

1. Year-round standard time: aligns with circadian rhythm
2. Year-round daylight saving time: extra evening daylight
3. Current system: compromise that nobody really hates enough to change
4. Always fall back: lengthens the year by 1 hour
5. Always spring forward (cursed)

#DaylightSavingTime #FallBack

In this house there are

• clocks that need adjusting for DST that are intuitive and easy to do: the microwave

• clocks that need adjusting and I have to check the manual: the hot water timer; the weather station

• clocks that need adjusting and I have to check the manual but I refuse to do it and it can stay wrong for 6 months or until a power cut forces a reset: the oven 😵‍💫

This is why year-round Daylight Saving Time failed in 1974, and would likely fail again. #DaylightSavingTime
