blinks Do you mean to say that Beenz wasn't a fever dream I enjoyed? Next you'll be telling me that Swatch's Beats was a real, actual attempt at redefining time, and wasn't just something I overheard being invented by a bunch of Jolly People at the pub one night.

The crazy thing is, Beats is a reasonable idea. The whole hype surrounding it was stupid, but a fully-remote-across-seventeen-timezones team would really benefit from a single, well-defined time standard. No more "Can I call you at 8am your time?" "Sorry do you mean my time at home, or my time in Costa Rica (came here for the holidays)"

This is why UTC already exists and is used for aviation, military, telecom and ISP purposes.
