      I get it, just pyramids are misleading, also year-month-day is better because resulting number always grows. 😺

        Hold on there pal that time zone is ambiguous. Did you mean 11:40:20 UTC? If so, don’t forget your Z!

          I mean 11:40:20 in what NodaTime would call a “LocalDateTime”. i.e., irrespective of the time zone.

          (And incidentally, if you’re working in C# I strongly recommend the NodaTime library. And even if you’re not, I strongly recommend watching the lectures about dates and times by the NodaTime developer, who demonstrates a way of thinking about dates and times that is so much more thoughtful than what most standard libraries allow for without very careful attention paid by the programmer.)
