      A baby born in Tokyo at the time I'm writing this will have his birth recorded as 11:30 am on January 9. Let's say there's one being born now named Yoshi. One hour from now a baby born in New York will have his birth recorded as 10:30 pm on January 8. Let's name this one John.
      Ten years from now both boys move to the same city. It could be New York, Tokyo, Paris, Rio, Sydney, doesn't matter. They become friends. They go to each other's birthday parties. No matter where they are they'll still go by the dates on their birth certificates, meaning they will be celebrating John's birthday first and celebrating Yoshi's birthday the next day, even though Yoshi was the one that was born first.

      The concept of time exists, we’re just using it In a dumb way in terms of time zones. We basically over complicated something simple. As explained in the video it could’ve been 24 simple time zones that are the same size and distance apart. But no everyone just had to over complicate it and now we have 24 time zones with fucked up borders and sizes.

    Newfoundland time is a half hour time zone. If it's 6:30 in NFLD, it's 6:00 in the rest of Atlantic Canada, including most of Labrador. St Pierre et Miquelon, the French islands to the south of Newfoundland, are an hour ahead of Atlantic time. This means that, even though a lot of the island of Newfoundland extends further east than St Pierre, the French islands are still a half hour ahead.

      And while flat earthers don't believe all those but only the earth as a realm and sun is local and does the rotation to give local time accurately. Therefore there's nothing to debunk in the beginning since the two are different. If you you're globe then go, if you're flat then also go.

    You forgot to mention back in the 1960s when you could take a 35 mile bus route from Steubenville, Ohio to Moundsville, West Virginia where you would have to change your watches 7 times, but that’s probably not so recent
    I think the weirdest time zones are
    1. China having one time zone across the whole country
    2. Spain and France being one hour ahead of GMT, then becomes two hours ahead of GMT in the summer
    3. Most of Alaska falling in the wrong time zone, where Alaska should ideally span between 9 and 13 hours behind GMT, Juneau should use GMT-09:00, Anchorage and Fairbanks should use GMT-10:00, Nome and Unalaska should use GMT-11:00, Adak should use GMT-12:00, and finally Cape Wrangell should use GMT-13:00, Alaska kinda reminds me of China where it should ideally use 5 time zones, rather than most of Alaska uses 1 time zone
    4. Arizona during daylight saving time has most of Arizona does not observe daylight saving time, Navajo Nation inside Arizona observes daylight saving time, and the Hopi Reservation like the rest of Arizona does not observe daylight saving time
    5. Australia has too many half hour time zones, Western Australia uses UTC+8 where Queensland and New South Wales and Victoria use UTC+10 and Northern Territory and South Australia use UTC+9:30 instead of just UTC+9
    6. Nepal uses UTC+05:45 rather than GMT+06:00
    7. Russia has a lot of time zones in the wrong place, eastern Russia uses UTC+12 which is right
    8. Argentina falls into GMT-04:00 but uses UTC-03:00

      Also in the population of the US is far more equally distributed. In China almost 80% of the population would still be using Being time if China had perfect timezones. So it makes sense to just make the remaining 20% use the time as well. In the US even though the East coast is the most densely populated part it's nowhere near by the same margin. The US has 2 coasts so it has a second densely populated section on the other side of the nation while the west part of China is pretty much deserted. It also has a lot more people scattered in the middle since the US heartland is very fertile. In China the most fertile places are in the South and therefore still roughly in the same timezone as Being is.

    I am from China and now live in Canada, having no problem for multi-timezones because you are not traveling across provinces everyday, right? A single timezone in one country may not be a really bad thing though, because my friends who work in Xinjiang told me that they go to work from 11am - 7pm, problem solved. As for summer Daylight Saving Time, it once created so many chaos when China applied it during the early 90s, and people are late for work/schools, missed their train/plane. Eventually government had to change back after 3 years.... sad

    (3:50) It is kind of awkward when you take an estimated imperial value, then convert it to a more exact metric value. It is a bit awkward to measure, but it looks to be 3475,59 km / 2159,63 miles. So if you round that to 2000 miles, you can say 3500 km.

    • @Shells15
      @Shells15 5 років тому

      It’s strange because we don’t have to change our clocks here, but we still have to be mindful of Daylight Savings Time. With family, friends, business relations, and schools in other states, we have to be aware of when we’re calling or setting up meetings. Explaining to someone what time zone I’m aligned with during that part of the year can get confusing. I’ve gotten to the point that for 1/2 the year, I tell them I’m in Mountain Standard (which is what we are listed as) and the other 1/2 half we’re aligned with Pacific. TV times (when you hear about a show you want to watch from ads) can be highly frustrating to figure out to this day.

  • @ironlionzion1380

    In many countries we see a tendency to use a time that is actually ahead of the actual time zone. It's as if people are not happy with the idea of the sun rising at 6am and setting at 6pm (on average between summer and winter), they want to make 7 (or even 8) to be the new 6.

    Arizona doesn't do daylight savings because it already doesn't cool down very much at night there during the summer, so having DST there; having the sun set an hour later than normal, would make it unbearably hot at night.

    The big problem with comparing a USA on DC time to China on Beijing time is that China has no California. Most of its big cities and most productive areas are located near the coast, as with most nations. To generalize, many (perhaps most) the areas most affected by being on Beijing time are areas too poor and sparsely-populated for anyone in Beijing to prioritize their convenience over the convenience of the coastal elite.

      I get that they don't want to have loads of time zones, but seeing as the western third of China is two hours behind in natural time, they could at least have that third be 1 hour behind Beijing. Two time zones isn't that bad really? One hour difference is easy to work out.

      Though California is the nation's most populist state, the entire western half of the US is significantly smaller then the eastern half. Eighty percent of the nation's television sets are located in the Central and Eastern time zones. (This is why prime time television programs are broadcasted simultaneously in EST and CST.) The total number of congressional representatives in the Central and Eastern time zones greatly out number the total number in the Pacific and Mountain time zones.
