Remember to tell w32tm to reload the configuration too.


> I can't imagine the sequence of horrible decisions that led to doing this.

My guess is that it was created because of Windows Phone 10. But it's not a feature I'd like even on my phone.


That seems far-fetched considering that afaik all cell networks provide time syncing


Cell networks provide some kind of time syncing... But accurate time syncing is less common than you'd think :)


Funny thing is that it does refuse to change the time when the delta is large. So it trusts these random bytes in the TLS handshake blindly, but when it gets the correct time from the time server some seconds later, it doesn't dare to change the time as the delta is too large!


I wrote more details in a ServerFault answer before contacting Ars Technica: https://serverfault.com/a/1132383/45588


That's some fun debugging to figure out, heh, a real head scratcher. Nice find!


I was baffled at what was happening after reading the article. Your TL;DR was perfect, and explained it very well in a single short paragraph. Thank you.


It's easy to turn off the feature, and its described in their original blog post. The article doesn't mention it directly though.


I'm Norwegian too, and remember watching it on a Swedish broadcasting channel when I was a kid. We had two channels, the Norwegian state funded broadcasting channel, and the Swedish state funded broadcasting channel. Good times!


I watched it on all the Nordic channels, when I was a kid. Couldn't get enough cartoon back then apparently. when it wasn't an abundant "commodity" like today.


> Jesus almighty that is a lot of licenses. No wonder MIT has just become the unquestioned default.

This is a specific thing per ecosystem/community. Some use a lot of MIT, some Apache, some BSD, some LGPL, some Boost and so on.

I suspect a lot of this is due to the viral nature of licenses. What license is compatible with MIT? MIT obviously, so let's just choose that :)


Really inspiring! Nicely structured, and easy to follow along, especially with the "Try it yourself" links. Amazingly addictive to tweak with variables :)


A nice and clear explanation of why tail recursion is necessary and how it works. I usually don't like mathy examples, but it worked fine here. I especially liked the section on trampolines as I didn't know how transpilers usually did that. Well worth the read.
