Did anyone consider pros and cons of shifting just by 10 minutes every month? 60 minutes per 6 months divides so nicely (and maybe unleashes hell to time duration calculations, but who cares). Edit: same for timezones.
- Nice fluid shift from month to month
- Minor errors less important
Cons:
- Rewriting of timezone code takes 8 years, claims over 800 lives as every programmer either quits or commits suicide after working on project for a few weeks
- The staggeringly difficult to detect under low load timestamping errors cause constant stress for distributed systems engineers, making the job among the most deadly in the world.
