On: Falsehoods programmers believe about time zones

[sippeangelo]

One thing I miss about Skype is being able to see the local time of the person you were taking to, right there under their name.

Maybe I'm a fringe case, but even though my company only exists in two timezones this difference still affects me every day on Slack...

Slack does this, but you need to click on someone's name to bring up their profile. This then has local time.

Presumably it's not easier because everyone important lives in San Francisco. \s
