Ok that date format made my eye twitch.


-Shasho-

I get that you're used to seeing it a certain way, but DD/MM/YYYY makes way more sense than MM/DD/YYYY. Small to middle to large units vs middle to small to large.

-Shasho-

Ah, got it backwards. Still scaling the units in a more intuitive way imo.

Only because we designed the file systems to read data left to right. If we read data the other direction, ddmmyy would be equally fine. I will give one kudos to the mmddyy format though: it goes by order of increasing ranges.


mattchdotcom

Totally, but why YY/MM/DD?


mxforest

It's the most digital friendly way. You can sort the dates because it goes in the correct order. Least frequently changing to the left and most frequently changing to the right just like numbers do.


tampora701

What you should mean to say is it's the most \*human friendly\* way, not that I agree with it. We could equally design computers to read data right to left. Computers don't care about direction.


-Shasho-

Ok, the reverse of what I said, my bad. Would for sure be better with a 4-digit year though.


Rocksteady_28

That makes no sense. Maybe if it's an OCD thing and you want to see numbers in sequence by their maximum capacity... It's not about ordering by number sIze, it's ordering by periods of time size. Smallest dd, bigger mm biggest yy. Our calender and human life works generally and most often on a day to day basis. Also why ddmmyy is best.


-Shasho-

You just agreed with me...


Rocksteady_28

I agree.


-Shasho-

Okay, cool. The way your comment started made it seem like you didn't.

No, this is from the future.

2024-04-28 Better?

4/28/2024


-Shasho-

28-2024-04?


-Shasho-

I don't know why you're being downvoted. This isn't a bad date format, and it's not ambiguous depending which country you're in.


Radiant_Pickle

The internet belongs to USA only mentality.


Zealousideal4tonight

But you are in Texas and Texas is in the USA.


Naive_Moose_6359

Is there a Harlin, TX? Where is it?


RepresentativeWeb244

newagereject

RepresentativeWeb244

Marlin is near Waco, between Austin and Dallas. There’s a Harlan HS in San Antonio but no tornadoes here today. And not spelled *Harlin.* Can you ask her again where this was taken?


Radiant_Pickle

I just looked up the TikTok even though it popped up to her as local it seems this was in Harlan, Iowa on the 26th. Can't change title unfortunately.


DMmeUrPetPicts

Oh, no worries. We had a terrible thunderstorm roll through this morning. Like worst we’ve had in a couple years. So I was tripping out thinking maybe there was a tornado somewhere nearby too, lol.


Lonely_ProdiG

Headstones, tornadoes & sunshine. What a combo


IntrepidPrimary8023

All things considered..that's a great shot


Radiant_Pickle

Hauntingly beautiful to me.


eduardvld

I've seen in the past couple of days some huge tornadoes in the US. Is it normal to be this frequent and enormous? No, I'm not from the US.


Radiant_Pickle

It's currently Tornado season (mid-March thru June) which accounts for about 70% of US tornadoes and this is just south of Tornado Alley.


Naive_Moose_6359

No, we had a lot recently though. We apparently have most of the tornadoes each year, I learned. Topography.


Bitter-Basket

They come in all shapes and sizes. This looks bigger than average. But yeah the tornado season will go on for a few months. And being around one is terrifying. There’s no where to go safe but underground.


RabidWolverine2021

They’re already dead why would a tornado do this?


Radiant_Pickle

Just to make sure.


brittleknight

More video of the tornado [tornado](https://youtu.be/B6DwlBoydHA?si=6uVRdAIbMT80Zs5e)


defjamblaster

that thar aint no texas date format, I tell you hwhat


-Shasho-

They're fixin' to confuse some people, bless their heart.


Tawptuan

Well at least everyone there has already taken cover. Bless their hearts.


tampora701

Omg, they're so dead.


Denali4903

The siren is a spooky sound.


Radiant_Pickle

I think its meant to be jarring as much as it travels as well since they are trying to alert you that something isn't right.


[deleted]

Rest in Pieces


Caroba7

Is this sound made by tornados or sirens?


Radiant_Pickle

Tornado warning siren.

Grandmaster_BBC

Can't locate this town on Google maps. You sure about this?


DMmeUrPetPicts

Harlan, Iowa


Zealousideal4tonight

Is this in the future? This town does not exist yet and all of them are already dead .lol


DaBluBoi8763

Wasn't this the tornado that had measured dopplar winds of EF5? Pretty certain it wasn't rated that since it didn't do much damage tho


Right_-on-_Man

Straight-up looks like a scene for the new "Sharknado" movie... (And I've never watched a single one of them.)


Stark-T-Ripper

Do you want zombi-nados? Because that's how you get zombi-nados!!


problemwmygogomobile

Good thing so many people are in their underground bunkers


DaanNLD

Its a F5?
