Had a cold this week and spotted this pair on my desk. Good reminder of a design choice to watch out for in healthcare software. Sometimes controls with different jobs should look similar for familiarity and consistency, but other times they should look different for safety.

I used the "dual time" mode on my ancient digital watch recently, and apparently you can set it to an arbitrary *date*, not just a time.
I suppose it's the easiest way to behave correctly across midnight, but I'd much rather imagine it was designed for a future where I have a DeLorean... 1/2
