Was riding my bicycle on a fence divided road in the center looking to turn, when a car drove past me and scared me into flinching towards the divider. The handlebar stuck in the divider and came to an immediate rest. My momentum took me over the handlebars and onto my face. Musta looked pretty goofy.
There is one big caveat to universal time:
Future dates: If you use utc here and a time zone definition changes, you’re boned. You have to store local time and offset for just this one usecase.
