woohoo I fucking hate timezones

woohoo I fucking hate timezones

humans, let's use unixtime instead

TLDR:

Time is 100% correct. I've set the time in UTC, which is how it should be done according to checklist:

In detail

Let's take this article for example: https://www.abc15.com/news/region-phoenix-metro/central-phoenix/suspect-hurt-in-officer-involved-shooting-near-40th-and-van-buren-streets

I've taken it because it was the latest article posted on the website. Actually, it was posted +- 35 minutes before my screenshot.

As you can see it was posted on "10:47 AM, Apr 29, 2019" (While current Arizona time is 11:22). They are using UTC-7 timezone in Arizona.

But the current UTC+0 time is 18:22. Keep in mind that article was posted not 7 hours ago but +- 35 minutes.

So we can definitely say they are showing local Arizona's time on the website (which kinda makes sense, right?).

But the thing: IV shows time in UTC+0 timezone! And if I understand correctly, it will change based on user's timezone. So user from Arizona will see correct time (17:47 UTC-7 = 10:47 UTC+0)


Same goes with the page you've sent: https://www.abc15.com/news/national/stranger-helps-family-of-missing-akron-teen-find-possible-break-in-43-year-old-case

Time you see on left is in UTC-7 timezone, and it's 3:46.

Now it we'll add 7 hours to get UTC+0 we get 10:46, which is, surprise, the result you see in my template.

And about the issue you've linked...
