a.m. vs. p.m.

Peter Rukavina

The IP address of our WAN here at Reinvented HQ was set to change at 5:00 p.m. today, which was to have made for a busy day scurrying around updating various places here and abroad where our IP address is hard-coded. Unfortunately, it turns out that what we thought was to be 5:00 p.m. was, in fact, 5:00 a.m.. So when we woke up this morning, we were entirely off the air.

I’m gradually catching up with the changes that need to be made — this site just came back online after I turned on routing. Email seems to be working. Our phone system needs a little more work. And there’s some DNS catchup work to do. But we’re on the road to recovery.

I suppose it’s mistakes like that that inspired “military”/24 hour time, which is a convention I’m sympathetic to. BTW, I notice the time stamp beneath your comment above reads “11:56 ADT” with no a.m. or p.m. or obvious indication of whether that’s because the stamp goes to 24.
