I label all of my notes like ‘YYYYMMDD_some_title_here’ so they automatically sort by when I made them when sorted by name, or YYYYMMDDHHmm if the note won’t be getting a title (such as daily notes or notes that I made too quickly to care about titling)
I don’t want to hear shit about what order we write numbers in from a continent where numbers include one hundred nine and thirty to mean 139, or three twenties ten and nine for 79
If you’re so mad at Fr*nch and German numbers, don’t look up Danish numbers. Unless you can guess what “five and half five’s”. Did you guess 95? Why would you?
It’s a twenty based system. “Two’s” is 40, “three’s” is 60, …
50 is “halfway to 60” so it’s “half three’s”, likewise “half four’s” for 70, “four’s” for 80 and “half five’s” for 90. 100 is its own word so “half five’s” exists but “five’s” doesn’t.
All up in here. Gotta replace the last - with a + where applicable… Or just put a big old Z there instead… Optionally add some .### after the second too if you’re so inclined.
Different languages have different conventions. For example, the standardized variety of my language allows 11/(0)9/2001, 11/(0)9/01, 11.(0)9.2001, 11.(0)9.01, 2001-09-11, 2001/09/11, 2001.09.11 (personally I usually use 11/09 without the year and 2001-09-11 with the year).
