I chuckled at the idea of having children solely for the purpose of waking up early :)



Young kids are very effective alarm clocks. The problem is you can't set the wakeup time.

And as they grow older they stop working, though you can always have another kid I guess.


Not so effective :D They also have time syncronization issues and they are very slow to syncronize to their NTP source (the sun).

It takes them _months_ to sync from boot unless you are very lucky and the "hardware" is only a few hours out of sync at boot time.


Why is this the best explanation of how babies work
