The Earth is Suddenly Spinning Faster Than Usual

Sounds like the premise of "Southland Tales" if somewhat in reverse.

From what I have read, it mostly has to do with the 32 bit storage systems presently in use and their ability to keep up with adding/subtracting of leap seconds.
One issue is either the uptime, the time the system has been up, or the boottime, the time the system booted, will be wrong by 1 second if a leap second was crossed. Logs at 23:59:60 are wrongly stamped with 23:59:59.

In the same way a positive leap second didn't create any noticeable problem I don't see why a negative leap second could be any different.

Hey Zanti,

Not Mentioned in the Article is that Our Solar System is Moving into Different Regions of Space too . That Can also Have an Effect on Earths Rotation .

Yes, I have been reading on this.
It may very well play a part in our global warming as well.

Yes , the Mayan 2012 Connection here was Not a World Ending Scenario , but the Earth Moving into a Region of Space of a Higher Frequency and Vibratory Rate Effecting Matter here on Earth along with Human Consciousness I would Personally Surmise........

Yeah, we started transitioning to Clown World around that time.

Maybe You Transitioned into Clown World but I Personally became More Sensitive to the FAKENESS of the Entire World Today back in 2012 . Hmm... I Must be SPECIAL After All ............*).

You haven't seen it, yet.
Read up on the "Friday the 13th bug" and "Y2K38".
Wiki has a good bit on Y2K38

And I just found this:

“The impact of a negative leap second has never been tested on a large scale; it could have a devastating effect on the software relying on timers or schedulers,” the Meta post argues.

So by your inquisitivness, I have also learned why many fear the negative leap second.
Thank you.

Might this coincide with the UN 2030 NASA Moon wobble?

It's got intelligence agency stink all over it.

Why is Earth speeding up?

There are many suggestions but no conclusive proof as to why Earth is spinning faster. Some of the hypotheses include:

1. Loss of the weight at poles due to melting of glaciers

2. Ocean tides caused by seismic activities

3. Moon's gravitational pull

4. The 'Chandler wobble' effect – as Earth is not perfectly spherical, which results in small deviation in its axis of rotation

"We don't know the cause of the acceleration of Earth's rotation. We have only hypothesis concerning the cause," said Christian Bizouard, from the Paris Observatory at International Astronomical Union.

"We assume that the cause is internal and lies in the movement of Earth's core. The crust which is linked to geological time scales, slides over the mantle and it is commonly assumed that the time variation is caused by this core-mantle interaction," he told CGTN.

"But we have only a speculative model of this theory based on the motion of the core," he added.

Ice weighs less than water so it shouldn't be that.

Ocean tides ebb and flow so they might cancel each action out.

Moons gravitational pull. It is always changing and could have some effect maybe. But the earth has more effect on the moon than the moon has on the earth. Here's an interesting article on points 3 and 4 of your post as well as a YT video

It's not the same thing, that's a known limitation of the system that has been known since the start.

“The impact of a negative leap second has never been tested on a large scale; it could have a devastating effect on the software relying on timers or schedulers,” the Meta post argues.

Being a programmer, I think it's much more likely that they tested it since they had to test for the first leap second than when the first least second was used.

So by your inquisitivness, I have also learned why many fear the negative leap second.
Thank you.

That's why I like to ask questions.

we see ice-skaters spinning all the time--- they spin faster as they tuck their arms closer to body

so, applying that principal to the Earth --- Earth would spin faster when the heavier 'core' material is somehow compressed to the center instead of evenly distributed in more spherical area..... more like this () instead of this ( )

? something associated with pole-shift dynamics being unique physics ?

I actually read an article on this, while researching the OP.
I will see if I can find it.
ETA:
I found the article, I found this bit to be very interesting, concerning the Chandler Wobble,

“The amplitude of the Chandler wobble is variable, in average 3-4 meters over a period of 433 days,” said Zotov. “In 2017-2020 it’s amplitude was less then 30cm, which happened once before around 1928.”

That's a BIG decrease. 3-4 meters down to 30cm!

Here is the part you were talking about:

“They moves because the Earth is not a dead planet,” said Zotov. Although the position of the celestial pole gradually changes over 26,000 years because of precession, the motion of the poles across the planet’s surface are something shorter-term. “Polar motion is caused by geophysical processes in the Earth systems, in particular currents in the ocean, winds in the atmosphere, internal processes inside the Earth,” said Zotov.

Scientists believe that something is happening inside the Earth to the core and mantle. “We are not sure because Earth is a very complex system, but I believe it’s causing the Chandler wobble to decay and the length of day to decrease synchronously.”

If this trend continues they may have to add the first ever, negative leap second.

That could cause havoc for current technology ... smartphones, computers, and other communications systems may be render useless ... Remember the "Y2K" scare?

Yes, but we'll get an extra second of sleep
