Yeah, I always stick to DateTimeImmutable and CarbonImmutable now whenever I'm working with dates. So much safer!

If anyone else is reading this and wants to know the difference between the mutable and immutable versions, I've got an article covering it 😄

Read about the difference between immutable and mutable dates in PHP. We'll also look at a common gotcha I've experienced when using mutable dates and how to avoid it.

No, you're right, the answer's 2026-01-02. But I always used to forget that DateTime and Carbon were both mutable. In the past, I'd have guessed that the answer was 2026-01-01 haha! So it caught me out more times than I'd like to admit 😂
