YYYY/MM/DD is my preferred format - Trying to guess if a date is DD/MM/YYYY or MM/DD/YYYY quickly becomes tedious (i've worked in the UK for US multinationals for the whole of my career). It's also a better format for naming files (payslips, bills, etc.) as they sort properly in a folder

You can also extend it to cover hours, minutes, seconds etc as far as you want/need consistently. Back in the day, that was the format Philips used on all internal communications.

Repulsive! I hate slashes in dates.

YYYY-MM-DD is good as is YYYYMMDD but slashes are yuck.

All three fields zero padded.

Yes, I also tend to use dashes and that's obviously a requirement for filenames (on Windows at least) and zero padding ensures correct sorting, again for filenames.

Reminds me of a very old joke: After the Moon landing, Khrushchev got mad and said: we will fly there too and paint the whole moon red!
Nixon replied: OK, perfect, then we come again and write "Coca Cola" all across it.
