I was so happy when 2012 was over! I did loose a lot of hair from intense head scratching over dates like 01/02/03 or 01-02-03, which has at least three different interpretations. 01/02/13 reduced it to two, and the slashes raised the probability of one of them. 01-02-13 rasised the probability of the other. With 13-01-02, you could almost be sure of the interpretation, 13/01/02 tended towards the other, but with less certainty. Still, you can't know for sure unless you have two parts of 13+, but the period from 2001 to 2012 was really a nightmare wrt. interpreting dates.
I really wish that the transition to ISO 8601 (i.e. yyyy-mm-dd style) would go faster! I know that "International Standards Organization", ISO, makes a lot of USAnians stall: It isn't invented here! But doesn't the American Standards Asocciation provide an American standard with the same contents, but a True American Standard reference that can be used to promote it in the USA?

But a lot of standards do have several standard numbers, because they have been developed in close cooperation of two or more standard organizations. Quite a few telecommunication standards have both an ISO number and an ITU "recommendation" number (like X.509). Some IEEE standards are identical to ISO standards. In Germany, DIN (eutsches Institut für Normung) is the German branch of ISO. They were very early with some standards (like DIN 45500 which all old-time hifi freaks know well) - parts of this was made into ISO standards with different numbers.
In a few cases, the standards have small "editorial" differences, such as whether the final part(s) are called an "appendix" or "annex". Or mandatory definition of certain terms such as MAY and MUST. There may be other formal requirements, such as ITU referring to specific regulatory units in the telecom world, which is against ISO principles, so those are replaced by terms like "the management organization" - not identifying a specific one. The technical contents of the standard is completely unaffected by these differences.
Sometimes, you may see national standards such as Norsk Standard 646 - NS 646 is identical to ISO 646 ("ASCII") but with an addendum defining its use in Norway. Fortunately, 646 was unused in the NS number series; in other cases, the NS number differs from the ISO number, for the same technical content. And for some standards, the English text isn't even translated to Norwegian for the NS version.

Oops. The beings on planet Antennae accidentally left the label on the TV before exporting it. And Trump thinks he has a trade imbalance with China -- if he only knew the true truth!

let me guess, it stopped working and you want to try and fix it yourself so you're looking for a tech manual.
Be careful, the "Warranty Void if Removed" sticker really is damn hard to get off without destroying it, use the sharpest blade you can find and be patient, really patient.

It's only winter slightly more than 11 months a year. The rest of the time is summer, and you'd be as happy as can be!

I've lived in the south (US) 99% of my life and when it gets below 60 I am cold, especially now that I'm older. I haven't seen snow in almost 40 years!, and that's been to soon.

60 degrees? When I lived in England any time the temperature went above 60 degrees in the summer they started talking about a "heat-wave"!

I tried to avoid the Docker hype for a while, as I am not really enthousiastic about Docker for Windows, but as the pressure is mounting I had to give in. Sadly no one seems to realize the amount of work on the Builder side that will be needed, and also to get the images served properly.
Well enough whining for now, I had a look at this overview: https://www.slant.co/topics/2436/~docker-image-private-registries[^]
And to me Harbor looks like an interesting choice, but I would like to hear if anyone has had any experience with it in a Windows environment.
Looking forward to your reaction(s)

I guess I would have stopped at "in a Windows environment." My experience with Hyper-V was horrid. Docker running under a VM in Windows was OK. Neither seems like a useful solution for any kind of problem I can think of, unless the Windows/Docker relationship has moved beyond first base.
