Daylight saving time ends!
By sikander_nsit, 10 years ago, In English

Daylight saving time has ended for this year. There will be a 1 hour time change for many countries. So pay extra attention to the contest timings in your local timezone. Happy coding!

PS : For Indian participants, the regular CF rounds will start from 10 pm instead of 9 pm. Yay!

Edit : Here I am telling everyone to be careful about contest timings while comfortably forgetting myself. I saw the time for today's SRM (638) a week before and never bothered to check again. Result, I woke up at 6:15 am thinking that the SRM would start at 6:30 am while actually it was to start at 7:30 am. Damn you daylight saving!!

DST is ending in the northern hemisphere, you mean. Our DST just started!

Oh, I see. In India you go back one hour in DST, while we go forward in DST. Curious difference.

I think 10 pm is more appropriate time for Indians:)

    Agree. My family eats dinner between 9 and 9:30. I felt bad asking my mom every weekend to make the dinner earlier.
