After a very long time, without leap seconds, the seasons will fall in unaccustomed months. On shorter timescales, noon will no longer correspond to the Sun at the zenith, it locations where that used to hold.
- sylware 4y agoyeah, I forgot about the daily sync for the sun at "noon", clockwork art. From a noob point of view, leap seconds would be for the calendar time relative to the unix time, don't tell me they did put them actually in the "unix time"... (yeah, I never really got into this), because at first glance it would feel really inappropriate.
