Weird Brazil Date Bug with Jon Skeet

December 31, 2022 | Retro
Digging through my archives once again and found this wonderful video with Jon Skeet doing what he loves to do: sleuthing date bugs and answering questions on StackOverflow!
***
Back in 2011 or so I recorded a series of videos with Jon Skeet, dissecting answers to his StackOverflow questions that he found interesting.


Jon starts things off by sleuthing out a rather hairy Date/Timezone bug which, evidently, only happens in Brazil. To make matters even more interesting, the code is written in Objective-C on iOS6!


Jon is not an iOS developer yet he still managed to get credit for this answer! I love how he digs into a passion of his: dates.
