    Hey Justin, thanks for taking the time to fuzz the UI a bit. There is definitely improvements we could make.

    I will point out, we are applying the same validations here that vixie cron does when you save a job. If you use "crontab -e" it will let you add a job with the schedule 5 4 31 9 *, and it flags the others you mentioned as invalid. For the most part, crontab.guru tries to be true to vixie cron.

    Also, good news on the daylight savings front. As you can imagine with a service like Cronitor we had to learn a lot about this. In most modern versions of Cron, jobs scheduled with a specific time will not be replayed when the clock moves for DST. You can see the logic here:
