Just noticed a defect in my static site generator, or a case of a hasty abstraction if you will. The plugin to format the dates used the year of the current week according to the ISO-8601 standard. This was the behaviour I wanted to have to format the index of the weeknotes, but not for a specific calendar date.

So today, Monday, the 30th of December 2024, marks the beginning of the first week of 2025, because the first week of a year is defined as the week that contains that year's first Thursday. So, happy new ISO-8601 year ;).
