I am not writing software at this moment so there are 52 weeks in the year

When I *am* writing software I never assume anything about dates, what the fuck is a week

What do you mean when you say weeks? We have fiscal weeks, calendar weeks, timesheet weeks, TPS report weeks…

Time is a social construct, but I can tell you how many seconds have passed since a specific date and time if you'd like.

How about how many seconds until a specific date and time?

Anyone?

I can also sing how many minutes there are in a year, but I can only sing it...

Any claim about date/time ranges that doesn’t include location is wrong. No, mere time zones are not adequate outside instantaneous points in time.
