Both my spouse and I paid to have our CVs professionally written, job coaching, and it paid for itself in the first couple of months. Not America though.

I think it was primarily a verbal ordering, that later became commonplace written down in the US. If it was written down in that order elsewhere, it would have been with the full text, ie. “July 4th, 1776”. Never something like “07/04/1776”, which I believe was an American invention.

The more I look at it, it’s making me feel a bit queasy actually
That’s not a colon. Both are commonly in use in Europe. USA just switched the d/m
There was the unreleased Windows “Blackcomb”, basically prior to Redmond seeing Apple’s Aqua, which was like a bit Windows 2000, a bit ME, flatness, outlines, square corners, and it could’ve been metro.
But resolutions and anti-aliasing were getting (slightly) better, so copy Apple, XP instead gets texture and rounds everything.
Vista was another interesting take, especially weird was the window controls. We are still living with those weird long controls with a margin below, but not above them, a lot of the time, even in flat land Windows 11.
Yeah and odd they don’t see the fundamental difference between these, Apple was always “glass widgets on/in a solid rectangle”
Only on Windows were windows windows

Spurious return of correct current date (30th)
“is it 2025 or 2024” It is 2025. The current date is May 28, 2025.
“is it 2023” No, it is not 2023. The current date is May 25, 2025, and the year is 2025.
I think written abbreviated it was always eg. 4 Jul 1776, 4.7.1776 in Europe (UK/France/Germany)
