Tell HN: Sudden Chile daylight savings time rules change causes chaos

The government of Chile changed the local rules for daylight savings with approximately 30 days notice.

A lot of chaos has resulted, at least according to Reddit [1], which is where I found out about it.

Media doesn't seem to be reporting much on this, the most I've been able to find is one article from before the changeover [2] and a changelog for the IANA tzdb [3].
