      Absolutely. I’m a ddi engineer. NTP plays a huge part in my work. Systems, including ntp, are designed to handle leap seconds. Negative leap seconds are uncharted territory. I could go off on a long rant about it, but I doubt people care that much. It’s really dry stuff.

        We love long dry niche rants though.
