Ah, the eternal MM/DD/YYYY vs. DD/MM/YYYY war continues! Some poor developer at Go actually documented their timestamp format with a confession that using the American date format was "a regrettable historic error." This is what happens when you let Americans design date formats—they put the month first like savages, and then the rest of the world has to suffer for eternity. Every international developer's nightmare is hardcoded into Go's RFC3339 constant, forever enshrined in programming history. The date format rebellion is real, and this developer's passive-aggressive documentation is the silent scream of everyone who's ever had to parse dates across different locales. ISO 8601 (YYYY-MM-DD) gang rise up!
