So that's why `tzdata` constantly gets updated.

as someone who lived in Chile for 3.5 years, I can tell you that all developers who use tzdata = a gift from God.

Calendly always seriously struggled with it, which is really bad given they're a scheduling tool. The amount of meetings I (or my guests) came 1 hour early/late to was... too many.
