Maybe he should get Stephen Colbert's second-by-second day planner.


woah, do you have a link on that? I use plan [1] which is great for minute level planning but also annoying in various ways, if there's other software that can do similar, would love to try it

(i'm guessing that this was purely a joke and no such thing exists)

[1] https://help.supermemo.org/wiki/Plan


It was from a skit on the Colbert Report (can't remember the episode). He talks about how NASA added a leap second and then pulled out this comical "second-by-second" year planner and said his plans are ruined because he doesn't know what to do with the extra second. Wish I could remember it.


I definitely would like to find this episode. Not coming up on Google. Do you have any idea when it was broadcast? Thank you so much!


It's dumb you got downvoted for telling a joke, geez


Telling jokes on HN is risky. HN readers don't want the site full of jokes, so they savagely downvote them unless almost everyone finds them hilarious.

This is a euphemism. Please don't use it.


Why not, out of curiosity?


It's a euphemism for J-sus.

“In this is love, not that we loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the expiation for our sins.” (1 Jn. 4:10)


Dissent, because for those of us who have never heard of such a connection (myself included) it is /not/ a euphamism but rather a safe epithet that the use of which never got anyone accused of "foul langauge" nor got anyone threatened with "mouth washed out with soap".
