Whenever I see things like this, my first thought is that somebody is going to write something to mess up nearby atomic clocks, just because they can, then I think- why, why did you do this?

Then someone will respond: you’re just catatrophising- anyone could’ve done this years before now, and I’ll say no, because it wasn’t up on frontpage HN there with code so that anyone would think of it. Then they’ll say, well why did you tell everyone that idea then! It’s your fault! Then I’ll say that someone would’ve done it if it weren’t me. Then I’ll go have a beer.

Are you sure the beer didn't come first?
