    Programming aside, where I live in Southern Europe we have a tradition according to which leap years bring bad luck. After 2020, I don't know what to expect... nuclear apocalypse maybe?

      Your comment made me go look at the source for moment.js. It has "leap" 13 times and the code looks correct. I assume they test stuff like this.

        Yeah, I'm generally using the common data/time libraries in most (if not all) languages and I'm pretty sure they've all been through more than 1 leap year at this point. I just never 100% trust the code I don't control - 99.9% maybe, but never 100.
