Yes! I want this! The problem is that distributed systems can't agree on what the time is. Remember how Google tried to fix this with atomic clocks and GPS? [1

Yes! I want this! The problem is that distributed systems can't agree on what the time is. Remember how Google tried to fix this with atomic clocks and GPS? [1] My hunch is that soon timing devices on distributed systems will reach instantaneous consensus by way of quantum entanglement.
