The more I learn about the computation of time, the more unbelievably complex getting it right seems. I thought I was pretty sophisticated in in my view of time handling, but just in the last couple of months there have been a series of posts on HN that have opened my eyes even more to how leaky this abstraction of computer time is. Pretty soon we'll have to defer to deep experts and fundamental libraries to do anything at all with time in our applications, a la security and cryptography.
