Does it adjust for the tidal forces that are constantly slowing the rotation of the earth?

The only Achilles heel to this clock is its components won’t last 5 Billion years.

It is entertaining to set both mechanical watches (which I love) as well as electronic watches against those super atomic clocks.

“If you take a clock off the floor, and hang it on the wall, Ye says, ‘the time will speed up by about one part in 1016.”
Might be a typo there. They’re talking the difference of a millisecond by being several feet higher.
That’d mean I could extend an 80 year lifetime by about 28 days if, instead of walking upright, I crawled.

Surely in five billion years, the Earth’s rotation will slow or the orbit will alter. If the clock doesn’t lose a second, once the length of the day decays, the clock will be increasingly wrong.
