Re: [time-nuts] Leap-second capture on laptop
I added this message to the Linux kernel near the end of 1993. There is a companion message that indicates the removal of the leap second -- but this has never been seen (except in testing!). In retrospect, it isn't clear that jumping the clock by a second was the right decision, but, at the time, it was the "obvious" thing to do.

It should not see public internet if powered on. The network is increasingly hostile, so patch your machines, and don't let any machines sit on public network unless you can patch them regularly and also do that.

[time-nuts] Leap-second capture on laptop
Fellow time-nuts, While not fancy by any means, my laptop captured the leap-second being inserted by this message in the /var/log/syslog: Jan 1 00:59:59 greytop kernel: [78458.839942] Clock: inserting leap second 23:59:60 UTC Gently pointing out it had registered a leap second and inserted it. This from using NTP servers, nothing fancy. Happy New Year and a Happy Leap-second!
