> future zoned datetime carry outright uncertainty as to their actual location on the timeline (as the zone’s offset can be updated at any point and any number of times until the event has elapsed)

I wondered if it would be worth applying a (optional?) version to a timezone when stored, so you could distinguish between "whenever it is this time in Perth" vs "when I currently think this time will be in Perth, though if Perth changes its mind on how it offsets time, I want to keep what time I currently think that will be".

But you're right, that doesn't really add anything over storing it as UTC.

Not "our app".

If we have to come up with a technological solution to grant anonymity when people are filming, criminals can use it.

If we as a society don't go around filming everyone all the time, we don't need that technical solution available, so we can film the criminals when they are doing something criminal.

And from this we can extrapolate what flip flops would be called if we had three feet!

Heh, while we're discussing English, this annoys me.

"The further back you go" is a continuum, the effect you describe should be too.

> The further back you go, the fewer Indo-European languages have articles.

Or match a discontinuity with a discontinuity.

> If you go back beyond a certain point, Indo-European languages don't have articles.

I'm going to a bank, a shop, a dentist - I've found a new one and I may well be about to describe it to you.

"A nice evening" - there have been ones before, there hopefully will be again, this was one of them.

GP's should be used when offering a specific one, like "the red one".

OP here looks innocent enough at least.

C: if nothing is waiting for it, don't run it at all.

ABC: if nothing is waiting for it, wait for it when it's run.

TF at least gave a nice folder view on the branches screen, which we've lost now we've moved to GitHub, but it has made it easier to enforce.

Redirecting to the habhub UI doesn't seem like it would also let them intercept people uploading their data to habhub.
