What is django.utils.datetime_safe and should I use it instead of standard datetime?
datetime, django, python
Solution
The difference is noted in the source code for `datetime_safe`:
# Python's datetime strftime doesn't handle dates before 1900.
# These classes override date and datetime to support the formatting of a date
# through its full "proleptic Gregorian" date range.
Huh.
Problem
What are the differences? Is it safer to use `datetime_safe`? I can't find any documentation on this class.
