I want Chinese programmer's day!

Well, it doesn't work for many countries that use DD/MM instead of MM/DD.

It'll work out for programmers, since most of them would prefer ISO 8601 dates [1] anyway.

¿Por qué no los dos?

For today, the highest budget[1] celebration I've run across: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrH8xyJG4rc

I'll have to try to find something else for 2020-10-24, but it appears Sun Wukong had a hacker's aversion to authority, so maybe that avenue will be fruitful?

We'd have to include the year in that case. That would mean we'd celebrate Programmer's Day on
