It has dawned on me that the clock I took in for repairs has been sitting with this clocksmith for 8 months. It literally hung in my house for 2 months....

Yes he has a backlog. But he promised it would be done in January when I dropped it off in August. I called literally 32 BUSINESS DAYS ago and he said "7 to 10 business days if it doesn't give me trouble. We will give you a call".

Over a month has passed.

Part of me is scared to even call and ask...

An interesting cert expiry error.

i know why it happened (race condition), but what was weird is that the error message said my clock was in the future, but it reported a date one month old.

I can only attribute this to two different race conditions.

TOC, TOU, TOC, TOU.

The title of an Emily Dickinson poem about forever and now inspired this painting about time, represented by clocks, a clock headed man, on a stairs, beside a grandfather clock, moving towards a door.

Europe goes into daylight saving time despite controversy.

Most Europeans woke up on Sunday clocks that jumped forward by one hour.

The twice-annual time change has long been contentious and was even voted against in an EU open consultation back in 2018.

@daringfireball Thanks, @mwichary, for putting a name—and great photography—to a font that’s everywhere! I found Gorton embossed on a (not that old) plastic measuring cup in my kitchen.

Then I looked at Chernobyl photos—sure enough, Gorton digits galore! (And who-knows-what Cyrillic lettering.)

So I was inspired to make a Gorton web clock with soviet-era reactor control styling (I’ll reply with how to read it):
