[Nix-dev] Leap Second

[Domen Kožar]

Yeah, leap second(s) are a big issue since that's the code that nobody
really tests. NixOS is going to have as much problems as the software
you're running has bugs.

Google is smart here, they're adding microseconds over a longer span of
time via their NTP, so the extra second doesn't disrupt any services and is
synced with the rest of the world at the "switch" time.
