In this Tinderbox Meetup, we dug deep into working with dates, Hyperbolic View, and Link Types.
Working with Dates (Demo from Mark Anderson)
@mwra let an extensive deep dive into working with dates in Tinderbox. This includes date settings, data operators, date export code, date formatting, and a little about date history. Remember, to a computer a date is just a number.
