Every once in a while (2X a week or so), when I submit a comment, the timestamp says that I submitted it "in 0 seconds" instead of the usual "0 secs ago". This isn't a huge problem, but if it can easily be fixed, I'd like it to be.

bug?

  • According to Geoff, it should have been fixed.

  • Last month. I see, but it hasn't been fixed, at least not on ELU.

I am changing it so that time differences of 4 seconds or less will no longer display as

… in 3 seconds

… 2 seconds ago

but rather

… just now

because really, what is the point of such absurd precision when we're talking about something that happened seconds ago?

  • Exactly, compared to Reddit, which cares enough to tell us how many milliseconds it took between submitting a post and a page refresh. Commented Sep 3, 2011 at 16:52
