    So doesn’t that mean it’s a housing bubble issue? It seems like the focus on 1971 is designed to mislead people to think it’s not a (very) recent phenomenon. This just seems like another “grr boomers” post which is just more division that serves to redirect anger from the ultra wealth.

    I bought a 3br 2ba 1.7k sqr house in the suburbs in 2017 for 135k and a hybrid car with 10k miles on it for 20k a few years ago. I’m really confused at these numbers. Are people just living outside their means and hoping collectors won’t come knocking? I was making 55k at the time and I had no real financial troubles.

    Absolutely. I’m a ddi engineer. NTP plays a huge part in my work. Systems, including ntp, are designed to handle leap seconds. Negative leap seconds are uncharted territory. I could go off on a long rant about it, but I doubt people care that much. It’s really dry stuff.
