Frequently asked questions

What is the time difference between Austin and Osaka?

Austin is 14 hours behind of Osaka: UTC-5 versus UTC+9. Both figures include any daylight saving currently in force.

What is the best time to call from Austin to Osaka?

There is no hour that is comfortable for both. If the meeting is unavoidable, the least-bad options are the edges of each side's day — late morning in Austin or early morning in Osaka — and the burden should be explicit rather than assumed.

Is there any way to make Austin–Osaka meetings work?

Not through scheduling. With no overlap, the workable options are async written handoffs, recorded updates, or splitting coverage into two regional pods so that each pod works its own daylight hours.
