> That kids will have to travel to school in the dark for the majority of the year, including in most cases standing around in the freezing cold at unlit bus stops?

In my experience kids have superior night vision and rarely care about what temperature it is outside.

I know this is hardly a radical take, but I don't care what time it is. I can adjust my schedule appropriately. What I hate is changing the time. It makes us all sicker, causes accidents, and workers in certain professions have to work weird hours to keep up with the changes. It's such a drag on the economy and only seems to serve a small fragment of society.

This is why I try to use old software. It has much less feature creep and will stay relevant for the long run. If you can compile it yourself, even better.

These articles are always about the privileged gatekeeping how others raise kids.
