We can do time sync, since we figured out how to do that pretty well. And so we asked: is this part of a trend where we’re going to start programming these systems differently? And [researchers] got kind of excited about that possibility of us being able to pull this off.”
Who gave this guy who's apparently never heard of kerberos, ceph, SAML, or any other technology the rights to interview? Sure, their windows are larger, but "nobody uses time" is so clueless it blows the mind, and it's hard to imagine who decided that "NTP, but machine learning" is a $21M idea
