Exciting update for distributed systems: Rusty Klock Inspection Kit v2.0 evolves into a robust CLI tool and library, adding NTS encryption, PTP support on Linux, persistent configs, and Docker environments. It equips SREs and engineers to tackle secure time sync in cloud and edge computing, fostering reliable, transparent infrastructure. How vital is precise timing in your workflows? #TimeSync #DevOps #OpenSource
This is what the NTP protocol does

Scott Laird spent a month 🤯 trying to synchronize his #Linux #clocks and wrote 3800 words 📚 on it — because apparently, nothing screams "gripping content" like the minutiae of time sync accuracy. Spoiler alert: it's as riveting as watching paint dry 🖌️.

310: CI You Later, Manual Testing This week in “things that give Justin nightmares” - Amazon Time Sync Service now supports *Nanosecond* Hardware Packet Timestamps. Now your packets arrive so fast, they file SEC reports before you do. #AWS #TimeSync #TheCloudPod https://www.thecloudpod.net/?p=21134

New version of my #timesync application!
v2.4.6 is out now!
- automatic retry if AutoSync failed
- add setting for the automatic "Retry" of AutoSync
- improved updatesearch
Smart engineering: slowing down time 1 second over 20 hours beats fighting with leap seconds at midnight.

@cikzh and David Venhoek connected with #timesync industry at ITSF last month and we're excited by the interest in our Kalman-based sync algorithm and its strong synchronization performance.
Here's an impression; Marlon on the exhibition floor, and excerpts from David's poster presentation.
🇩🇪 Brauchst du ein Programm, mit dem du manuell die Zeit mit einem bestimmten Server syncronisieren kannst?
Mit timesync brauchst du keine automatische Syncronization mehr - drücke einfach auf den Knopf, und es wird syncronisiert.
🇬🇧 Do you need a program with which you can manually synchronize the time with a specific server? With timesync you no longer need automatic synchronisation - just press the button and it will be synced.
So my windows time sync has been off by 1-2 seconds all day today. Ended up downloading BktTimeSync and was able to get it to update my clock to my GPS dongle as well as another local time server. Guess I'll need to keep that running for a while.
Oops, #Zeit am Notebook noch falsch eingestellt! 🕰️ Nein, nicht wegen #Zeitumstellung! 🕑🕒 Hab gestern Nacht noch irgendeine "Ab 16" #Krimiserie in der #ZDF-#Mediathek durchgebinged und ab 6 Uhr früh oder so darf man nicht mehr weiterschauen, es sei denn man loggt sich mit #Altersnachweis ein. Lol, nein danke! 😆 Oooooder, man deaktiviert den #timesync-#Daemon und stellt die lokale Uhr halt auf Nachts! 🌌 Zack, fettich: #Jugendschutz! Aber ich finds ja gut, dass schlaue Kinder mehr dürfen! 🤣
Amazon Time Sync is now available over the internet as a public NTP service
