So if you have a column of dates that are (presumably) in the same format, it can't use the full set of dates to deduce the format.  Also, once it has parsed a date, you can't get the format it used, whether to parse or render other dates.  These limitations prevent it from being a silver bullet for date parsing, though they're not enough for me to stop using it!", "reactions": "{\"total_count\": 0, \"+1\": 0, \"-1\": 0, \"laugh\": 0, \"hooray\": 0, \"confused\": 0, \"heart\": 0, \"rocket\": 0, \"eyes\": 0}", "issue": {"value": 724878151, "label": "Bring date parsing into Datasette core"}, "performed_via_github_app": null}
