More #ChatGTP buffoonary...
While trying to decipher a Gibson Les Paul serial number, I thought this "instruction" was a simpler one for #AI ... NOPE ...
What do you mean there is no 297th day in a year ... because of #leapyear !?!?

In a surprise move Greenwich Observatory, tenders of the Meridian Line of Meantime fame, have announced that as we all skipped a #LeapYear tomorrow will be Saturday March 32nd not 4/01
Adjust calendars accordingly! To prevent panic and confusion, use Government issued safety scissors to cut the #2 from the start of March and use Pritt stick or Cornflakes and warm milk to attach it over the 1 in 31 towards the end.

Happy birthday #GioachinoRossini, composer of William Tell (one of our favourite encores), born on this day in 1792. 🎶

Or was he? Born in a #LeapYear, maybe he would celebrate it tomorrow. A good excuse to have a 2 day celebration. That would be a big hangover...

"One can't judge Wagner's opera Lohengrin after a first hearing, and I certainly don't intend to hear it a second time."

Happy Birthday to all the #leapYear people who are missing out on cake once again :bear_hugs: 🎂

I just got invited to a meeting on Feb. 29. Not sure if they want to do Wednesday or put off meeting for a year 😜 #LeapYear

How do we know there is going to be a #LeapYear? Calculate when the next southern solstice will fall, and when the month that contains it will fall.

One can look at the situation in two ways:
1) Are there 12 full lunations between this southern solstice and the next one?
2) Are there 13 months between this solstice moon and the next one?

These are two different ways of asking the same question, but if yes, then one of the next 13 months will be a leap month.

Smiling Declan to start 2023 on a sweet, happy note.
Goode wishes to all.

In 1900, Maksim Trpković revised the #JulianCalendar. Under his system, an year that yields a remainder of 0 or 400 when divided by 900 is a #LeapYear.

Milutin Milanković slightly altered this in 1923, changing the rule to years that give a remainder of 200 or 600. A mean year in this calendar is just 2 seconds off the #TropicalYear. It is used by some, but not all, #EasternOrthodox churches.

See, declaring a #LeapYear was actually the decision of the #PontifexMaximus, which was an elected political position. If Pontifices Maximi would routinely declare a leap year if they liked the #consuls, and refuse to declare one if they disapproved, in order to prolong or contract the administrations of various consuls according to their own preferences and ambitions.

Plus, since a #LeapYear wasn't declared until late, outlying parts of the empire wouldn't know until months later.
