  • "midnight" is confusing because it doesn't belong to either day, it's the instant that separates one day from another.

    "23:59:59" belongs to one day and "00:00:00" belongs to the subsequent day.

    Most people mean "00:00:00" when they mean midnight, except when they don't.

  • Yeah which is why most guidelines suggest specifying the two dates between which the midnight in question falls to clarify or doing like some digital clocks do with a 24:00 being the end of one day and 00:00 being the start of the next.
