ISO 8601 is paywalled RFC allows a space instead of a T (e.g. 2020-12-09 16:09:…) which is nicer to read.
minus-squareTeckFire@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·9 months agoThe difference: 2023-12-12T21:18Z is ISO 8601 format 2023-12-12 21:18 is RFC 3339 Format A small change
minus-squarehyperhopper@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·9 months agoI definitely don’t agree that the RFC is easier to read, the two numbers can appear to be one at a quick glance without a separator.
minus-squareelauso@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up0·9 months agoBut there is a separator between the numbers: the same one that also very reliably separates the words in this comment
minus-squaretreadful@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·9 months agoISO 8601 also allows for some weird shit. Like 2023-W01-1 which actually means 2022-12-31. There’s a lot of cruft in that standard.
minus-squareSirQuackTheDuck@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·9 months agoDoesn’t the ISO also includes time periods? Because if it does, those are amazing. Without any explanation, you should be able to decypher these periods just by looking at them: P1Y P6M2D P1DT4H PT42M
minus-squareSirQuackTheDuck@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·9 months agoIt makes the difference between M meaning month or M meaning minute. Small differences.
minus-squareKilling_Spark@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up0·9 months agoSo it’s redundant in P1DT4H? Or is it a mandatory separator between ymd and hms?
The difference:
2023-12-12T21:18Z is ISO 8601 format
2023-12-12 21:18 is RFC 3339 Format

Hmm I don’t get the T there tbh
