Time travel fantasy? Nah, just give me five minutes with the timezone creator. I'd explain how their "brilliant" idea turned into the most cursed part of software engineering. Seriously, who thought it was a good idea to create 40+ timezone standards, DST rules that change on political whims, and historical timezone data that requires regular updates? The number of production bugs caused by timezone calculations could fill a black hole. And don't get me started on leap seconds! The only thing more terrifying than a datetime bug in production is finding out your database doesn't store timezone info.
