Frequently asked questions

What is the time difference between Denver and Chengdu?

Denver is 14 hours behind of Chengdu: UTC-6 versus UTC+8. Both figures include any daylight saving currently in force.

What is the best time to call from Denver to Chengdu?

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 Denver or early morning in Chengdu — and the burden should be explicit rather than assumed.

Is there any way to make Denver–Chengdu 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.
