Once every 1461 days, sometimes, we have a day on the calendar that we don’t normally have.  This extra day is a necessity if our calendars are kept in sync with the orbit of the Earth around the Sun, but it also can cause problems with people and computers.  Nonetheless, whatever problems it might cause are far less than some of the alternatives, which would require leap weeks and even leap months.  Learn more about leap years and the significance of February 29 on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
