2011-06-26 22:03:15 Martin Pool description Every time I report a bug the resulting page says that it was reported "0 seconds ago" or "2 seconds ago" or "5 seconds ago" or something. This is silly, because it varies only according to how fast the server happens to be at the time, which is an implementation detail. This could be fixed by reporting how long ago something happened as "just now" if it was less than, maybe, 30 seconds ago. In comparison, Twitter uses "less than 5 seconds ago", and Facebook uses "a moment ago".
