FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

It's a common misconception that [William Shakespeare][1] and [Miguel de Cervantes][2] died on the same day in history - so much so that UNESCO named April 23 as [World Book Day because of this fact][3]. However because England hadn't yet adopted [Gregorian Calendar Reform][4] (and wouldn't until [1752][5]) their deaths are actually 10 days apart. Since Ruby's Time class implements a [proleptic Gregorian calendar][6] and has no concept of calendar reform then there's no way to express this. This is where DateTime steps in:
>> shakespeare = DateTime.iso8601('1616-04-23', Date::ENGLAND)
=> Tue, 23 Apr 1616 00:00:00 +0000
>> cervantes = DateTime.iso8601('1616-04-23', Date::ITALY)
=> Sat, 23 Apr 1616 00:00:00 +0000
In this tutorial we are going to build a Twitter clone using Django and GetStream.io, a hosted API for newsfeed development.
We will show you how easy is to power your newsfeeds with GetStream.io. For brevity we leave out some basic Django-specific code and recommend you refer you to the Github project for the complete runnable source code. At the end of this tutorial we will have a Django app with a profile feed, a timeline feed, support for following users, hashtags and mentions.
I assume that you are familiar with Django. If you're new to Django the [official tutorial] (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/intro/) explains it very well.
