Answer 1

You need to first parse the string as its formatted, then print it out the way you want.

>>> import datetime
>>> ts = "2016-12-10T13:54:15.294"
>>> parsed = datetime.datetime.strptime(ts, '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%f')
>>> parsed
datetime.datetime(2016, 12, 10, 13, 54, 15, 294000)
>>> parsed.strftime('%b %d %H:%M:%S %Y')
'Dec 10 13:54:15 2016'
