I'm still hoping .beat time[1] will catch on but I have been waiting since 1998... I even made a watch-face for my smartwatch showing .beats

I'm guessing (from your name and enthusiasm) that you live in a place where 0 approximately corresponds to midnight? :)

Another alternative is to base time on the current longitude of the solar meridian.
