From the discussion
A few top-level comments from Hacker News, shortened. Read the full thread on Hacker News.
That stupid "special" timezones in Canada messed up Microsoft (they got their issues for not keeping their record stragith). This is what happens when a part of country does not follow. China is the other extreme. They got one stupid timezone, so one part of the country is dark AF, but then other side is daylight.…
I'm genuinely curious as to how fast this was handled by Apple devices, Linux, etc. With enough advance notice, I don't see this being that terrible to patch. Was it lack of advance notice?
