Whoever came up with this has wayyyyyy too much free time on their hands
That’s 03:14 if it’s HH/MM, you absolute heathen.
03.1415926
man printf
Yeah, and π is 3.141592654…, so if you round up to the nearest ten millionth it’s actually 3.1415927
Sorry OP, gotta wait till next year…
Still works as there’re plenty of mathematicians that would love for people to acknowledge the infinite zeros preceding each number.
The real problem in this case is if you write september as 09.
People complaining about the time and date format, and not the equal sign for an approximation…
Fuck it, let’s do MM:HH next.
I refuse to accept date/time formats that don’t sort automatically. yyyy-MM-dd or bust
See you in 89 years
Nah, we’ve got this coming up in 5
31-4-15 9:26am
Do you use dates only in computer’s files?
If I made up a stupid date format like HHHH:YY:M I could make some familiar numbers too.
Gonna get up at 3:14 and eat a whole pie then go back to sleep
Just like every day
Any intelligent person uses MM:HH 😤
Well, you can celebrate it with us inbreeds then.
Then you can celebrate at 2:03PM…
Sorry, next year…next digit is 5 so need to round up.
FUUUUUCK IT WAS SEVEN MINUTES AGO I CAN’T BELIEVE I’M ACTUALLY USUALLY AWAKE AT THIS TIME AND STILL MISSED IT GODDAMMIT
It will hit my time zone in 5 hours. Wanna come over & get another chance to experience it here?
I’ll bring snacks!
Oops I forgot about it & fell asleep. 3am is not a normal hour to be awake. More snacks for you! 🥨
I was standing in the - potentially very locally constrained - pouring rain by your window for HOURS with a snack bowl over my head, screaming your name! Assuming your name is Stella.
Yes my name is Stella. I guess I couldn’t hear you over the pouring rain. I hope your bowl of snacks was waterproof. And hope you didn’t miss the plot & were able to bask in the moment of GMT-7 3:14am 15th day of the 9th month of the 26th year of the century 🙏🏼.
Quick new time zone
You can still catch it at 3PM

Rounding wrong, too…
For some reason Pi doesn’t get rounded, it gets cut off
hh:mm dd.MM.yyyy
This is under no circumstance okay.
In 5 years it’ll be 31/4/15 9:26:53 for you, but that requires getting rid of 0 padding april which i don’t like.
People won’t tell you that this is the real Pi Day.
Happy Pi Day Eve, everyone!!!
03:14 15/09/2026
So broken.

RFC3339 or RFC9557 or bust.
Well, that’s not a circle at all. I’m beginning to think Pi Day is something made up to sell protractors in stores to unknowing kids.
