This is maybe not extremely on-topic, but when creating an account on their platform, their "Time zone" field is sorted in alphabetical order of CITY NAMES which are listed AFTER the timezone name and are not capitals, which is absolutely wild to me. If the same engineers worked on this that also worked on the ad deliveries, we're about to get either the best deal per click of the century, or the worst! | ||

Ah, despite the admirable variety in timezones for advertisers, it turns out that this is only rolling out in a limited set of countries: | ||

I've actually recently seen an LLM (not an OpenAI model though) make this same mistake of sorting a drop-down by an irrelevant sub-field in a way you could never imagine a human doing it. Still says something about their development culture that they either never noticed, or didn't care enough to fix it. | ||
