@rem @ffconf As until ES5, parsing of strings was entirely implementation-dependent. After the ES5 spec, the ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ) is explicitly specified, while other formats are still implementation-defined[.]—developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date/parse. I wish ES5 had made all else throw.
