279
Year 279 (CCLXXIX) was a common year starting on Wednesday (link will display the full calendar) of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Probus and Paternus (or, less frequently, year 1032 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 279 for this year has been used since the early medieval period, when the Anno Domini calendar era became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years.

gollark: As I said, while *technically* you can use C for some web stuff, it is not a good idea.
gollark: Do you know any Python?
gollark: JS is pretty C-like in syntax if not semantics, so probably not too horrible to learn decently well.
