We had to learn decimal multiplication tables at schools, but they are not very useful with base-60 hours/minutes/seconds, base-7 weeks, base-24 days, base-12 months, and base- Jesus years. Let's face it -- our calendar is a mess. Here was an idea from my childhood, trying to make my life easier:
1 year = 10 months 1 week = 10 days 1 day = 10 hours 1 hour = 100 minutes 1 minute = 100 seconds
=> 1 second = 0.864 standard SI seconds. => 1 month = 3~4 weeks. +> Time starts at Unix zero

It's both -- time and date.-- Mindey, Jan 04 2018 Ok so it exists but to make it the standard that is the goal. You have a good Kiloday.-- dev45, Jan 08 2018 The only sensible way forward is to attach massive rockets at a tangent to the Earth's surface to speed up the Earth's rotation so that there are 1000 days in a year (or, I suppose, slow it down so that there are 100 days in a year)-- hippo, Jan 08 2018 random, halfbakery
