Just made a post; date of post "1 second from now"

I just made my first post on the forums and was surprised to see that the date on my post was "1 second from now". Ok, fine, maybe my machine's time is broken. I'm on a Mac with ntpd running so I find it doubtful, but all the same: 29 Sep 20:36:34 ntpdate[22589]: adjust time server 17.171.4.33 offset -0.021035 sec So I don't think it's my end. Not sure how to suggest tracking this down, really. I'm sure your servers are running ntpd too.
It's just doing a basic calculation using your local time as provided by Javascript versus the time on the server when the page was rendered. It also probably rounds. I assume you refreshed and the time now says "5 minutes ago" or something. It's just a handy quick-reference :-)
I get that all the time too... figured it doesn't matter much 10 seconds later
