Happy New Year's to all you nostriches. May this coming year bring you peace and good cheer.
May your stacks continue to grow and your family (by relation or not) flourish
GM Nostr... As we start the downhill run to close out 2025 may 2026 find you healthy, happy and lots of zaps.....
For me, I am glad to see this year pass by, although I have made new friends, found new passions, and looking forward to new opportunities.
Wow !!! NIST boulder has been on generator power since Dec 17, the generators are starting to fail. Already time has drifted by apx 4 nanoseconds (about a 5000x difference in accuracy.
I know that at least some crypto methods rely on accurate time, how long can those functions still work with the boulder NIST out of action? Are there other clock sources that feed the system?
I never gave this eventuality much thought... We take accurate time for granted, but now just one more thing to worry about as the collapse moves forward.
