Pi day isn't responsible, but it is because of changes to daylight
saving. The International Bureau of Weights and Measures announced
that, in order to gain a few more days of summer weather, all clocks
would be put back by 96 hours at midnight on 31 March 2023. So April 1
is now occurring on what would have been April 4. Expect the usual
torrent of silliness to arrive shortly.
