# DST
This is my first experience of Daylight Savings Time, and I feel like I'm living a lie. I am living a lie. I'll settle in soon enough, but now I see the clock saying 12h30 and I know it's actually only 11h30. I feel like I've been cheated out of an hour of my life. I know I'll get it back at the end of summer, but still.
If you think of the amount of computational effort needed to handle daylight savings time in the modern world, you have to wonder whether it might've been better if, in the pre-computing days when DST was first concocted, someone had tried to be less clever and had just passed a law forcing organisations to open an hour earlier.
