title: Parsing date with time.Parse
body: <p>Hi I am trying to parse date in the format YYYY-MM-DD. I am trying this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>time.Parse("2020-12-30", "2016-01-01")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but I get the error, which I guess is a parsing error, </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>0001-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 UTC parsing time "2016-01-01" as
    "2020-12-30": cannot parse "-01-01" as "0-"</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>How do I parse this, maybe give some hints through additional examples? TIA.</p>
