- themafia 1y agoThe United States Government calls it "The Pacific Timezone." They define it, maintain it, and broadcast it's definition. They're the only entity with the authority to do so. That's what I'm using. I'm not using whatever the time happens to be in Los Angeles, I'm using the federal timezone definition. My timezone should absolutely be just "US/Pacific." Using "America/Los_Angeles" is _absolutely_ an abstraction and it's obviously entirely unnecessary.
