To ease the problems with computer clocks that don’t like 61-second minutes, Google pioneered the idea of the «leap smear» that makes the leap second’s changes in many tiny steps over the course of a day.

Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc, Verstappen’s closest title rival, was third fastest on the timesheets but a hefty 0.637 slower than the Red Bull driver who will be favourite for pole position in later qualifying.

3 months agoWho said don’t exist any more? The iPhone 13 Mini ($729 unlocked, $699 on a carrier plan) is brilliant because it has everything the iPhone 13 has — it’s just smaller. And if you’re worried about battery life, don’t be. The iPhone 13 Mini packs a bigger battery than last year’s iPhone 12 Mini. In our tests, the iPhone 13 Mini lasted 3.5 hours longer than the iPhone 12 Mini on a single charge. It also lasted an hour longer than the full-size iPhone 12 in the same test.

Eriksen became United’s second signing of the summer after he agreed to a three-year contract taking him through until 2025. He will be looking to make his debut for the club during their opening game of the season on August 7. 

The temporal tweak causes more problems — like internet outages — than benefits, they say. And dealing with leap seconds ultimately is futile, Knows kit the group argues, since the Earth’s rotational speed hasn’t actually changed much historically.

Since 1972, the world’s timekeeping authorities have added a leap second 27 times to the global clock known as the International Atomic Time (TAI). Instead of 23:59:59 changing to 0:0:0 at midnight, an extra 23:59:60 is tucked in. That causes a lot of indigestion for computers, which rely on a network of precise timekeeping servers to schedule events and to record the exact sequence of activities like adding data to a database.

The tech giants and two key agencies agree that it’s time to ditch the leap second. Those are the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and its French equivalent, the Bureau International de Poids et Mesures (BIPM).

Ronaldo’s future at Manchester United remains up in the air as he told the club he wanted to leave Old Trafford this summer. He has also missed the first three weeks of pre-season after being given compassionate leave for a family issue.

The fixture against the non-league side — which is owned by Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney — will take place at Carrington and will be played behind closed doors without fans in attendance. 

The leap second change triggered a massive Reddit outage in 2012, as well as related problems at Mozilla, LinkedIn, Yelp and airline booking service Amadeus. In 2017, a leap second glitch at Cloudflare knocked a fraction of the network infrastructure company’s customers’ servers offline. Cloudflare’s software, comparing two clocks, calculated that time had gone backward but couldn’t properly handle that result.

«We are predicting that if we just stick to the TAI without leap second observation, we should be good for at least 2,000 years,» research scientist Ahmad Byagowi of Facebook parent company Meta said via email. «Perhaps at that point we might need to consider a correction.*

Researchers from the University of South Australia, in Adelaide, found that people who use a wearable fitness device of some sort walk an average of 1,800 more steps per day than their peers who do not.

Computers are really good at counting. But humans introduce irregularities like leap seconds that can throw a wrench in the works. One of the most infamous was the Y2K bug, when human-authored databases recorded only the last two digits of the year and messed up math when 1999 became 2000. A related problem is coming in 2038 when a 32-bit number that some computers use to count the seconds from Jan. 1, 1970, is no longer large enough.

What next for Cristiano Ronaldo? Wantaway Man United star is… Juventus ‘will target Chelsea star Timo Werner or Manchester… United’s £55m new boy Lisandro Martinez enjoys an Italian… Juventus ‘are plotting a summer swoop for Memphis Depay’,…

To complicate your decision, some iPhones have two cameras, others have three and still others have four (including the front-facing selfie camera). You should also take into account that nearly every current iPhone model has Face ID except one: the iPhone SE (2022). Having a lot of options isn’t bad, but it can feel overwhelming when buying a new iPhone.

The minutes spent eating breakfast, exercising and showering in the morning divided by how much less than eight hours you spend sleeping and how far you are from leaving bed at 7.12am, plus the minutes you spend doing other ‘getting ready’ activities should add up to more than 37 to be having a good morning
