- LeoPanthera 10y ago"Leap smearing" is a clever solution when dealing with software that cannot tell time properly, but it does mean that your clocks will be up to half a second out, on a day with a leap second. Useful perhaps if you run a datacenter, but a poor solution if you actually care about accurate timekeeping.
- tedunangst 10y agoA large part of the problem is people who think they care, but really don't.
- FLUX-YOU 10y ago"fleet of atomic clocks" is definitely a cool phrase.
