> That's why i write 11th september 2025 as "2025-8-10"
I read that as satire or trying to bait people (tabs vs spaces etc).

It reads like a bad attempt at trolling. A better version would have been 5-10 paragraphs on why 0-based is better, and then hit the reader with the punchline. Instead, it's a very short piece that jumps straight to their reasoning that they're confused by things every grade schooler understands and so 0-based is better. Which is not a terribly persuasive argument.
If they intended it to be a serious argument for 0-based indexes, they should not have admitted to being less intelligent than most 5-year-olds.

It's not trolling. It seems like people hate my opinions so they call it trolling

Actually he's wrong, it would be 2024-8-10 - after all, to be consistent we'd need to start counting our years at 0.

I already count years at 0

What is the first letter of the alphabet, is it "B"?
