    Today I spent multiple hours trying to debug a timezone issue in a codebase. The timezone I was testing with was Etc/GMT+4, which I had assumed was four hours ahead of GMT. Turns out, it’s actually 4 hours behind GMT 🤦‍♂️

      I cannot express how much I hate that timezones aren’t flipped. 12:00+02:00 should be equal to 14:00+00:00 like a math equation!
