Here's another try, mainly with default browser font size, more contrast and

I've also added a little questionable gimmick to the sidebar (when you collapse

So, again, why make your br
By dodging the issue entirely - anything I might want to regularly run from

A clock that is purely monotonic may not be useful. However, people
typically imply that it will have a certain minimum progress (seconds
advanced/real seconds passed). Then you can use it for timeouts.

No. time.monotonic() always work or always fail. If monotonic()
failed, steady() doesn't call it again.
