It's nice to know that the EBCDIC->ShiftJIS conversion is now reliable.

It's a better product for it.

I just finally slew a timezone-related issue that was caused by a
vendor stubbornly refusing to provide time zone information in their
JSON-based API calls (a killing offense IMO) except when it IS there
(fun with SimpleDateFormat! Thanks, Sun/Oracle, for not providing a
way to emit/parse ISO-8601 date strings using SimpleDateFormat until
Java 8 and then making the documentation unreadable so you have to
write unit tests just to find out how it works) and the server is
running in yet another time zone (e.g. UTC).

Sometimes stuff just takes a while. What's a few dozen more lines of
plumbing code between friends? :/
