| | | | | Clocks are important to computers. Computers need to order events in a way understandable to humans. Every computer has a bunch of internal counters, like CPU ticks. But they only work within one machine. We need a way to have a reliable, global clock, that is synchronized between many computers. Why, exactly? Well, imagine you are selling tickets to The Rolling Stones concert. They sometimes sell within a few seconds. First come, first served.

A staffer at the USA's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) tried to disable backup generators powering some of its Network Time Protocol infrastructure, after a power outage around Boulder, Colorado, led to errors. As explained in a mailing list post by Jeffrey Sherman, a NIST supervisory physicist who maintains the institute's atomic clocks, "The atomic ensemble time scale at our Boulder campus has failed due to a prolonged utility power outage. | ||
