- Ah. Okay, good luck with that. Those (Julian, Gregorian) calendars were invented by people who were using Roman numerals. Unfortunately, due to the widespread use and standardization, we have to abide by some of those paradigms, even though we now use a decimal positional number system. However, modern four-digit year date systems recognizes year 0 as +0000 (== 1BC). Makes more sense to me. So I'm afraid according to that the first decade has to be year 0 to 9. 😝 I'll look forward to see parents celebrating the birthday of their babes when they complete 0 years. Such absurdity... ?? But they do. It's called birth. And I think your choice of example is a bit weird. It doesn't reinforce your case. It reinforces my point of view: The babies live and exist, all the time up to that moment when they have lived for a year, and becomes one year old. And then they're on their second year. The one year birthday is a borderline that is crossed, not a past state that is entered. The state that is entered is the second year of living. The first ten years of a child's life, are 0 to 9. When he/she has celebrated the tenth year birthday, the child is on it's eleventh year of living and in the second decade of living. By contrast, the dates the Romans assigned in the calendar don't follow the assumed Christ's birthdays. Year one is before Christ has celebrated his first birthday. That's why year zero has to become year 1BC, to align with the same calendar. Dates are maybe a bit "absurd", but that is partly due to that calendars need to fit astronomical and seasonal cycles, and partly due to that the pre-industrial people who made up the calendars we are still mostly using, had great problems with the concept of "zero". They didn't realize it existed. The Roman numerals are inherited from an Etruscan method to count sheep, cutting incisions in a stick. For some reason, they never figured they had a need to mark a stick as having no sheep, for the shepherd who had lost all his sheep, to distinguish the counting stick from every other stick lying around. But for a general numbering system, such a symbol has to exist.

So you're assuming only the integer part. I'm counting from the fraction and rounding. If they're on their first year, than it's year 1, simple as that. 0 is an intant, can't be counteded as a whole year.

I was refused a discount once when I was 16, because according to the rules of the place there was a discount for kids up to 16 yo. While annoying, they were technically correct, as I was by that time older than 16 by however many days had passed since my 16th birthday.

Because to a lot of people the decade starts in, let's say 90-99. Right now there's a bunch of list with the best game of the decade: 2010-2019, and I refuse it. The decade goes from 2011 to 2020. It’s because the first ten years of the calendar was 0-9. There is no year 0. There is 1 BC and then comes 1 AD.

I'm not sure... but I could never quite find them completely "cute".

Never understood how you can romance aliens in a Mass Effect game. They look weird, they have weird body parts that probably don’t even match with us and they absolutely smell funny, there’s no doubt about that. It’s weird, you’re weird. Stop it. Be a good human and lust over Miranda instead like any normal person. Garrus looks like a bird and Tali lives in a full body suit day in day out. No amount of lynx body spray is gonna sort that out you’re just kidding yourself fellas. All I can say is it’s a good job sheep can’t talk and offer loyalty missions otherwise there might be a whole subset of people wanting to fuck em all of a sudden.
