> Isn't 17:27:09 +0300 == 22:27:09 +0800, making the commits just about one hour apart?

Yes, and even worse:

> Even more damning, on 6 Oct 2022, we see the following: one commit at 21:53:09 +0300 followed by another at 17:00:38 +0800. This is only a difference in a matter of minutes!

No, this is a difference of almost 10 hours...

Maybe the author inadvertently switched the two analyses? Or maybe the author is just not very good with timezone math... :)



Author here. Thanks for pointing this out – we switched the examples. (although we also are very bad with timezone math at 2 am.)


No problem, all of you are welcome! Very enjoyable article.
