I have a piece of paper on my desk, each side has the time zone, utc offset, and date when DST will change. Twice a year I flip over the paper.

Right now it reads "EDT, UTC-4, until: Sun, Nov 2"

Going to add a clock next to it now, that's a great idea

And then with distributed team you realize DST change dates are different around the globe.

Desks around the globe can have different pieces of paper.
