Charles, you didn't actually post this at 10:02am. You posted it sometime between 10:04 (when Anna's post about Kshama Sawant was published) and 10:15 (when I hit refresh and suddenly found this post inserted between the aforementioned one by Anna and Dom's "Please Don't Kill Yourself" article.) You do this a lot (backtrack the posting time of your Slog entries). I notice them because I hit refresh and see your articles suddenly appear where they were not before, rather than at the very top of the page with the most recent posting time listed. Why?
@4 lately mobile slog posts have not been linking correctly. A later post's 'newer' button will link not to the next post but to the previous post. Creating an unintentional but kind of funny infinite Slog loop.
Any chance it's because the clock on Charles's computer is way out of sync? I don't know anything about how the Stranger's servers handle posts from within their domain, but I know if I deliberately mis-set my laptop's clock (disable auto-sync and manually enter a different time) and send myself an e-mail, it shows up with the bogus time. Charles doesn't seem the type to fret about system settings (or exact time of day, for that matter).
I regard the Internet as a series of tubes, so I always assumed someone had taken the plunger to a particular pipe to dislodge whatever post showed up late.
That NASA photo is pretty impressive. The majority of the US looks like it's under not clouds, but a glacier.
Matt, I have noticed it on occasion but haven't given it much thought. I had reckoned it had to do with an edit change.
