    I don't get it. On mobile it hung, on desktop it just made a clock that had minutes no seconds, no matter my zoom level. Is this really hyperbolic or just a huge circle?

    If this merely put the minutes and seconds in a readable font size along the "hour" arm, it would be cool and useful.

    I could glance and see it's about 1:30 pm.

    I could look for a second and see I have four minutes to my 1:30 meeting.

    I could stare and get a 15-second time period.

    Effing Smith chart in clocks. Will it follow me everywhere?
