CVE-2022-31163: Arbitrary file execution through TZinfo (Ruby)
For everyone who is panicking about this - to be affected, you either need to use a really old version of tzinfo (0.3.60 and earlier), have the tzinfo-data gem installed, or explicitly set TZInfo::DataSource to DataSources::RubyDataSource.
Otherwise, by default, tzinfo will use TZInfo::ZoneinfoDataSource, which does not seem to be affected.

Humane Rails Forms
There's actually a lot of issues and PRs for Chronic at https://github.com/mojombo/chronic that could make it a more capable library and fix some of these issues.
- A declarative DSL for calendar events and scheduling
- Chronic: A pure Ruby natural language date parser

Safari's date-picker is the cause of 1/3 of our customer support issues
In my web apps, I make dates text boxes that can handle inputs like “next Thursday”, “Monday at 5p”, etc by running the inputs through https://github.com/mojombo/chronic
I like the idea of inputs being able to make sense of as wide of a variety or formats as possible.
For number inputs I’d like to build into Rails something that can handle basic math expressions. For example, a person can enter “120 / 2” in an input and get 60. This is useful for expense apps where you need to expense half of something.

Dte: A language for expressing and calculating date and time
Reminds me of the Ruby library chronic https://github.com/mojombo/chronic
It's pretty good at natural language interpretation of dates, and the basic "from today" calculations, but cool to also see here natural expressions to parse between dates.
What are some alternatives?
local_time - Rails engine for cache-friendly, client-side local time
ice_cube - Ruby Date Recurrence Library - Allows easy creation of recurrence rules and fast querying
ByStar - Lets you find ActiveRecord + Mongoid objects by year, month, fortnight, week and more!
groupdate - The simplest way to group temporal data
time-lord - time-lord is a ruby gem that adds extra functionality to the time class.
business_time - Support for doing time math in business hours and days
fugit - time tools (cron, parsing, durations, ...) for Ruby, rufus-scheduler, and flor
Recurrence - A simple library that handles recurring events.
