if you write the date in iso8601 (YYYY-MM-DD) it still works. which is just as valid (more valid if we are talking about date entry for computers) as (DD-MM-YYYY).
Seeing as I think this digital existence thing is gonna be more than a minor trend, YYYY-MM-DD is the only form that matters. In fact, months or minutes should be changed in language to better fit and eliminate the ambiguity of MM.
I watched 3 Blue 1 Brown's video on colliding squares in an idealized frictionless environment reproducing an approximation of π in the number of collisions. I came up a little short in my understanding, but in my defense it is still 3.13 here ATM.
Tomorrow I will maybe do some CAD, and seeing as how proper design for the topological naming issue in CAD is due to π truncation in the tree, I'd call that my act of obeisance.

Shouldn't this actually be people who celebrate Pi day and People who write the date correctly?

I'm giving a cream pie for pi day

I'm waiting for the π lunar eclipse, which in my area (central time zone USA) is gonna peak in about an hour and 45 minutes.
That's 3/14 at 1:58am
That's mighty close to 3.14159, I think it'll be extra neat to see the ring around the eclipse red moon on π day, at π time.
Hopefully it won't be too damn cloudy, but yeah we got some slightly foggy/cloudy weather tonight ☹️
Oh well, if I see it I see it. If not, I still got my beer and weed 👍
