If you don't want leap seconds use TAI. If you do want leap seconds use UTC. This is like people saying that we shouldn't have daylight savings so we should redefine GMT to not have DST. That is not only stupid but breaks all use cases where you care about historical DST. This is why we have UTC, it's GMT - DST. People in 1960 could figure this out. Are we so incompetent that our grandfathers were better programmers than us? |

Crap programmers' grandparents were no better than they are. We live with it all. All their code doesn't work right and won't be fixed.
But, stop breaking it with leap seconds, and it will stay not broken.
