War in Ukraine

As they should be. The US does many things right, but the way we abbreviate dates is stoooopid.
It should either be
2022.03.07 (big endian)
Or
07.03.2022 (little endian)
03.07.2022 is an illogical mixed endian format in which the hierarchy of the time units is jumbled

You are correct.

While my wife and I were working on her visa paperwork, this was the source of much confusion and discussion from time to time. When I type dates out for reports and such at work, I use 7MAR2022 (variation on the little-endian) so the month position is clear.

The appropriate question is who ran a candidate who was less attractive than Biden in the eyes of 81 million voters.
The real question, that nobody will answer, is why you guys spent 4 years calling Trump a racist, then voted for Biden, who's actually been a racist.
 
US intel estimates between 2,000 and 4,000 Russian troops have been killed in Ukraine

The US intelligence community estimates between 2,000 and 4,000 Russian troops have been killed in Ukraine since Moscow launched its invasion last month, the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency said Tuesday.

DIA Director Lt. Gen. Scott Berrier told the House Intelligence Committee Tuesday that the intelligence community has “low confidence” in its assessment of how many Russian troops have been killed in Ukraine, but that the range is between 2,000 and 4,000 troops.
Berrier said that the estimate is based both on intelligence sources as well as open-source material.

That's 200-300 KIA Russians per day.
 
I use 07-Mar-2022
I liked the format Churchill used in his WWII memoirs. 07.III.2022
Roman numerals for the month made it easy to interpret
The date format difference can really trip you up overseas if you aren’t careful. Especially for date that are close (like 07.06.2022 vs 06.07.2022)

Should absolutely be ISO standards:
yyyy-mm-dd

Largest units to smallest units…and therefore has the benefit of being easily sortable.

Also ensures consistent parsing. The inconsistent way we deal with dates not just in the US - but in other countries around the glove - is a real PITA.

The best part about membership in the Democrat party is that logical consistency is not required (in fact, it is downright frowned upon). But when your entire platform is based on feelings and not facts, you can get away with it

Biden has a LONG history of making bigoted comments. Not just a slip here or there.

I’m sure the question was rhetorical, but the answer is the left doesn’t care about bigotry unless they can use it as a political weapon.

ISO is what I often use for computer file names. Like you say, sorting is easy then

The 81 million should have been in blue font.
I have a good formula for you to use in order to access the amount and impact of voter fraud on the 2020 election:

0.63 (amount and impact of collusion between Russia and Trump on the 2016 election)
 
How many Biden voters regret voting for that idiot?
A higher percentage than that of 2016 Trump voters who regretted voting for that idiot.

Careful how you interpret that or you will inadvertently prove my interpretation.
