Did you ever have a day where you have one task.

And you open up the app, open the file...

Then spend 8 hours on a completely separate task, and wonder how it's already 5 pm?

(At least I got this particular clock down from 37 seconds off to 200ms off...)

Congratulations, you saved 36.8 seconds.

Joke aside, it is funny how hard it is to count, and count right. Do you have any idea why it might have deviated 37 seconds? that is not a small deviation.

@murteza Leap second offset originally. Now hitting some annoying Intel driver bugs on Linux :)

@geerlingguy @murteza
along this same line....
How do you know how far you are off?
What are you using for your standard?
Aren't ntp.org or nist.gov good enough?

I'll bet you have covered this is one of your videos.... so if you want to just respond with the video url that would be all I could hope for.
I did see a video where you talk about how you build a time keeper for you lab to coordinate everything.
Thanks !

@AG100pct @murteza working on that.

One thing to note: all time is just an approximation. I'm off NIST by around 200ms, but it's harder to quantify over the public internet below 1 microsecond. But I'll get there :)

Working on distributing GPS time over PTP currently.
