The Evil within the Comparison Functions - https://www.viva64.com/en/b/0509/
Annotation. Perhaps, readers remember my article titled "Last line effect". It describes a pattern I've once noticed: in most cases programmers make an error in the last line of similar text blocks. Now I want to tell you about a new interesting observation. It turns out that programmers tend to make mistakes in functions comparing two objects. This statement looks implausible; however, I'll show you a great number of examples of errors that may be shocking to a reader. So, here is a new research, it will be quite amusing and scary.
The referenced story talks about the last line effect.
Shouldn't that be the sole decision of the reader?
The year suffix enables everyone to make that decision on their own.
Some don't want to read anything twice. Some especially like good, old truths. And most are somewhere in the between, having differences preferences depending on the topic.
