Why do some people insist on doing big-endian dates? Little-endian (YYYY-MM-DD) is trivially alphanumerically sortable. Also, it’s part of the goddamn ISO standard for standardized date format.
Which is why the guy in the comic will "die single".
You've got your endians mixed up. Big-endian means the most significant value comes first. ISO8601 is big-endian.
