@nikitonsky Another example: you are writing a program for students to show important historical events on a calendar.

On which day would you display the Russian Revolution of 1917?

@bemyak Oh, we Russians know this very well! It’s a famous “October revolution” that happened on November, 7, 1917

@nikitonsky Actually, when it was happening, it was October for everyone. The date was changed retrospectively when Russia/USSR switched from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian year later.

So on the date of revolution the Georgian calendar was not a thing 🤷
