> Displaying relative time like “1 day ago” is especially foolish. Does that mean between 0s–23:59:59? Or 24:00:00–47:59:59? Or perhaps 24:00:00–6d 23:59:59?

> When you have multiple browser tabs open and switch between them, and you see “just now” — is it really just now? You last looked at that tab an hour ago. Maybe two hours? Maybe it’s been open since yesterday.

I have a screenshot of two Jira comments that go from "one year ago" to "one hour ago" because the two comments happened to be something like Dec 31 and Jan 2.

I am sure the "as a user, I should see relative timestamps" ticket was closed fast though! Another job well done!
