Falsehoods programmers believe about time

This is a compiled list of falsehoods programmers tend to believe about working with time.

Don't re-invent a date time library yourself. If you think you understand everything about time, you're probably doing it wrong.

There are always 24 hours in a day.
February is always 28 days long.
Any 24-hour period will always begin and end in the same day (or week, or month).

HTML forms let us only use GET and POST methods, but HTTP provides us with more:

HEAD It works like GET but will not return the body. Useful for checking if the resource is 404 or has been updated (via caching headers).
PUT A way for HTTP to tell "create or update if exist" the resource at this URL with my payload.

This specification is inspired by and supersedes the [AngularJS commit message format][commit-message-format].

We have very precise rules over how our Git commit messages must be formatted. This format leads to easier to read commit history.

Each commit message consists of a header, a body, and a footer.

	Python script for batch geocoding of addresses using the Google Geocoding API.
	This script allows for massive lists of addresses to be geocoded for free by pausing when the
	geocoder hits the free rate limit set by Google (2500 per day). If you have an API key for paid
	geocoding from Google, set it in the API key section.
	Addresses for geocoding can be specified in a list of strings "addresses". In this script, addresses
	come from a csv file with a column "Address". Adjust the code to your own requirements as needed.
	After every 500 successul geocode operations, a temporary file with results is recorded in case of
	script failure / loss of connection later.
	Addresses and data are held in memory, so this script may need to be adjusted to process files line
