A cute systemd feature to get the system clock roughly correct: if the system time is before the compilation time of the systemd binary, it moves the clock forward to that time!

I've been compilation buffers in Emacs recently and I really appreciate the error and warning counts shown in the modeline.
I've added the equivalent feature to deadgrep: it shows result counts! Really useful when you're doing big refactorings.
