Gah, just when you think you can trust time.nist.gov

Suggestions from the community for more reliable alternatives?

> Gah, just when you think you can trust time.nist.gov

You still can...

If you're that considered about 5 microseconds: Build your own Stratum 1 time server https://github.com/geerlingguy/time-pi

or just use ntppool https://www.ntppool.org/en/

I'm more concerned about what you think they did to earn your trust in the first place
ajkjk•7m ago
their handling it responsibly seems like more evidence for trusting them, not less?
ianburrell•6m ago
Most places that need accurate time get it from GPS. That is 10-100 ns.

Also, you can use multiple NIST servers. They have ones in Fort Collins, CO and Gaithersburg, MD. Most places shouldn't use NIST directly but Stratum 1 name servers.

Finally, NTP isn't accurate enough, 10-100 ms, for microsecond error to matter.

I'm missing the nuance or perhaps the difference between the first scenario where sending inaccurate time was worse than sending no time, versus the present where they are sending inaccurate time. Sorry if it's obvious.
