My working hours have never changed due to DST. In fact I've never seen the business hours of any business change due to DST.

Does anyone anywhere care about this issue. If so you need to learn to prioritize. Country is falling apart and this we are talking about.

It's been such a fun season. Sabonis and Fox made the all star game and deserved it. We are 13 games above 0.500, are in the second seed in the west, and have a beam. Plus, they don't have unlikable guys and everything just seems so positive around the team. Light the beam!

These fools. If we are going to stop moving clocks, we should be making Standard Time permanent. I have to believe that a significant number of legislators pushing for permanent Daylight Saving Time incorrectly believe that DST is what we use in the winter.

I wonder how much of these stats genuinely reflects their matches performance though.
Assuming that as long that a team's rating is consistently moving upward/rightward over time, that would also mean that they're "winning" more matches / having a strong, explosive performance over time?
(vs. just staying in one spot, which means stagnant performance)

If not later, being on the edge of the time zone sucks.

It's better to wake up when the sun is already up and out.

The ship carrying the metric weights and measuring devices sank and never made it here, so we just winged it.

Because who doesn't want to wake up for a week in winter where the sun rises at 9:30 am that sounds incredible.
Full stop, standard time is better from a health perspective alone.

We got it to almost 9am in the Netherlands. Indeed, it is hell. People say they want daylight after work, but the thing is, having lived on the eastern side of a timezone in the tropics, evening light is of no importance. It's the late sunrise that keeps people cling in bed for long, that creates melatonin when having to start the workday, that actually makes people depressed. Part of the dread is how up to the middle of February, the sun only rises after 8 because of the same reason why midday is rather late too in February. Once March has arrived you just see how people look more rested, even on days with horrible weather like last Friday.

All these people clamouring for permanent DST are going to regret it when they send their kids to school in the dark because the sun doesn't rise until 9:00.

Businesses are going to open an hour later if it gets light an hour later. You’re going to be working later. There’s nothing special about 5pm that makes it quitting time.

I’ve written to my Congress critter and both Senators specifically about this.
Here’s a resource with links to some research on why this is the way: https://savestandardtime.com
