us-east-1 gang rise up!! For once I can feel mild pleasure at seeing the tables turned… To be honest I don’t know why all my projects are always in USE1, I guess it’s just because that’s where we have always had them for my lab so I’ve stuck with it for no good reason…

They launch all the new fun toys there!

Something related/non-related, it's still painful to read specific timezone not UTC.

I've long wished for built-in browser functionality that converts times to the user's preferred time zone, with perhaps a dotted outline indicating that a change was made by the browser to the page.

Yeah, but, I mean, the least you could do is to say UTC-7. I'm sure everybody living in PDT knows it's, well, their time, but how the fuck should everyone else know what time PDT is.

This is worth proposing. A tag where fallback text is provided within which can be overridden by the browser with a formatted date string would be excellent.

I’d always hoped this is what HTML’s time tag would become. Unfortunately it does almost nothing.

It exists: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/ti...

As a nearby comment indicates, it's not clear any browser makes use of it.

US East 1 was the default region until a few years ago. If your account is older than that, then most likely all your stuff is there.
