Readit NewsGiven the author, his history in the field, and the project, though, I'm confident the repetition is intentional.
Like a contemporary rapper dropping Doom bars on a track, I read it as an homage / callback / shout-out, even if the meaning is changed.
And so 15 October 1582 used to be the 0 for some COBOL date functions.
Later that was changed to Jan 1 1600. In IBM's systems you can control what you prefer by a switch: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/2.4.0?topic=services-date-li...
tl;dr - MySQL uses 1000-01-01 as the minimum value for a datetime field. Different Ruby libraries use different methods to represent dates, which can lead to situations that appear to claim that 1000-01-01 != 1000-01-01.

Is there something about you that you would do anything to keep covered up?
Are you susceptible to outside influence?
Can anyone, in any country, compel you to act counter to the interest of your employer?
Foreign property means you are, at the very least, going to take interest if/when the foreign government threatens it.
In other words, this solves the problem of "one hit wonders" getting out of the cache quickly, but that basically already happened with the reddit workload.
The exception to that was Google, which would scrape old pages, and which is why we shunted them to their own infrastructure and didn't cache their requests. Maybe with this algo, we wouldn't have had to do that.

Has there ever been a loyalty component to rank and file federal employment before? This seems to go against the meritocracy they claim to want.
If you do a great job, anything else shouldn't matter...
Civil service in the US has been neutral politically and merit based for the last 140 years. It stands directly opposed to the "spoils system" which awarded positions to friends, campaign contributors, family members, etc. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spoils_system
I live in a one party consent state for the recording of conversations [1,2], whether on the phone or in person. I don't know how y'all get away without it in California. It pairs really well with free speech, and it feels wrong to not have this legal feature available.

"We will have conversations and share information and we agree we can act on the information but would all prefer not to be directly quoted or have the information we shared be shared with others outside the meeting."
It's not legal, it's social.
Break trust with a wiretap (really?) and you'll just find yourself no longer invited to the fun places.
Had a lot oft fun playing it via Devilution[1], the open source reversed project. Works like a charm on Linux and has some decent improvements like play/run-speed, a shared storage for collected items at the woman in town and other useful tweaks.

Obsidian ring of the zodiac
Created (or at least established or set the benchmark for) the action RPG genre, spawned clones and imitators, and has multiple triple A sequels.
Left a HUGE footprint, in other words.
What's up, OP?
