After setting the time zone (I guess this also changes the frequency that it listens on) it starts to sync itself using that signal. It is also solar-charging - so this basically means that I never have to touch it. Although it's an analog watch, because of this sync, it correctly handles DST, the date window (including leap year) - basically I never have to touch it again until it breaks . All without bluetooth or internet connection - pretty cool I think.
Casio Oceanus t200 for anyone that cares.

This I am less certain on, but I believe there is a fairly robust space program (not many countries have that). I’m sure there is more.
We essentially propagate the context manually between APIs and lambdas, through HTTP headers, SNS/SQS and even storage. We also ended up pulling Tempo’s Parquet files (we’re self-hosting the grafana stack) into Redash to be able to do real analysis. We got a lot of great insights and were able to do a lot of tuning that would have been impossible otherwise, but it was quite an investment. Would love to know if there is anything out there that would have made this less painful.
And if you do the math on what one would cost - by the time the subscription cost catches up, it’s time to upgrade the rig.
No particular love for the Republican Party, but it’s a problem created by the Democrats, which they then patched with the inferior Frank-Dodd. Plenty of stupidity to go around, I would say.
