Happy Leap Second!
What the heck is a leap second?
A leap second happens every few years when the standard time around the world is adjusted to account for the slight mismatch between our clocks and the Earth's rotation.
This time around, the leap second was slipped in just before 8 PM Eastern Daylight Time (midnight Coordinated Universal Time/Greenwich Mean).
And if you were like me, you didn't even notice it.
Happy Leap Second!
