Absolutely. I'm a ddi engineer. NTP plays a huge part in my work. Systems, including ntp, are designed to handle leap seconds. Negative leap seconds are uncharted territory. I could go off on a long rant about it, but I doubt people care that much. It's really dry stuff.

dealing with time

Network engineer here, it's just as bad here. Currently trying to figure out what to do with 'gaining' a negative leap second. In 2025, we may lose one for the first time in digital history.
