However, you can make it more "robust". It is possible that on a Dec 31,

clock may switch to the next year.

 
Well, it is highly unlikely, with chances being slimmer thank winning
the mega lottery.

Sadly, these "highly unlikely" items are just the things to come out of
(seemingly) nowhere after the code's been running for years, and then,
one time, on Dec 31 the planets align "just right" and the process goes
"boom".

Only by then, no one knows why, and possibly, the original author has
also moved on to elsewhere.
