I propose the use of MYDYDM format. So, October 15, 2023 will be written as 121350. Just to make it as confusing as possible.

And then convert that to hexadecimal, making it 1DA06

We're also unduly forgetting about truly little endian date format: DD/MM/YYYY, for instance 52/11/3202 for this Saturday

Also we could just sort the numbers and omit leading zeroes, that way we can save some space, the same date would be 1122235
