The article says meters, not feet.

Norway does. I think it was introduced in the 1990's after Helsinki Accord observers reported the possibility of fraud.

Until then, if you voted early and gave somebody else's name, you could have voted twice.

I don't think this happens often. It would have been included in the report of possible irregularities that is published after each election. I looked through the reports after two or three elections, and never saw reports about this.

English and Old English are West Germanic, Nordic languages and Old Norse are North Germanic. Very close cousins, but neither descends from the other.

I find it weird that English apparently doesn’t have an everyday word for marine bioluminescence. It’s such an academic word. What would traditional sailors and fishermen have called it? In my language (Norwegian) we call it «morild» (sea-fire).

This is true when all network delays between the synchronized device and the time reference are deterministic and accounted for in the configuration. The design of PTP assumes that this is the case. NTP, on the other hand, estimates the network delays to its time references.

Is there any reason to believe that PTP would be better in normal networks?

Could have been more, but Norway was one.
