This is the best reason that I have seen for replacing pi with tau. 
[Other than the very simple cases mentioned by the tau enthusiasts, replacing pi with tau would require adding factors to many equations.]
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

As a developer you should know that culture specific dates are a hassle 
You either don't format your dates, in which case the customer is going to complain that his dates are formatted wrong, or you do, but you still do it wrong and now all your parse methods throw exceptions too

You either don't format your dates...or have only US clients who are used to it being 'wrong'.

You obviously missed the news that we're adding an extra day to April this year.

Pardon my ignorance, but is this Tau in any way related to the Tau Te Ching?

Accomplish the great tasks by a series of small acts."

Are you saying it's a cheap Chinese knock-off of a Greek letter?

I'm not saying nuttin'. Was just asking!

They'd probably get it wrong, anyway.
Not that it would matter -- Chinese is all Greek, to me.

Meth Lab found inside Muncie, Indiana Walmart Restroom.[^]
What? 
(NOTE: It's a full meth lab in a backpack. But still, WHY???)

Makes sense to have the lab located near both the supply and the customers.

So I was writing my new blog post, for about an hour, maybe more, non-stop typing... Then I wanted to look something up. And apparently I did that in the same page as my blog. Blog gone. No auto-save, no "are you sure you wish to leave this page?" popup. No nothing 
I can hit back in the browser and it will return to my blog, but it only saved my introduction...
What editor doesn't have some kind of auto-save in 2015? A really very bad one.
What person doesn't have his work backed up in 2015? Someone using a really very bad editor (and someone who doesn't save his work every five minutes).

Well... I use the online editor of Wordpress and that does save the posts in drafts. I have never used wordpress offline (or the CMS) because of PHP.
Seems like, ASP.NET once again saved my sigh,

I use the online editor too. The Beep Beep Boop editor for a "new and improved posting experience!"
Improved experience my ass...

Who uses that improved version? I use that old dashboard version of posts. I hate their improved user interface.
