Mariatta 🤦🏻‍♀️ :python:Are there "names" for the different date time notations like US: month, day, year Europe: day, month, year US: 12 hr with AM/PM Other places : 24 hrs Iso standard Etc?If there are names for these different notations maybe we could add them as Python enums and use the enum instead of constructing our own "%m %d %Y" whatever.Wouldn't that be interesting? Might solve lots of bugs with wrong datetime format. 🤔<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Python" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Python</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/datetime" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#datetime</a>

GlyphIs it possible to get a zoneinfo.ZoneInfo key (i.e.: IANA tzdb identifier) for the current system timezone, in Python? `datetime.now(timezone.utc).astimezone().` gives a potentially ambiguous 'tzname' and 'utcoffset' which make it difficult to communicate long-term time intervals to other systems<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/python" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#python</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/datetime" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#datetime</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/timezones" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#timezones</a>
