   185  * travel in time, which can confuse algorithms. Instead we measure
   186  * elapsed time according to the system.  This time can never go
   187  * backwards (i.e. it never wraps around, at least not in less than
   188  * five million years of system elapsed time). It might not advance
   189  * while the system is sleeping. If TimeStamp::SetNow() is not called
   190  * at all for hours or days, we might not notice the passage of some
   191  * of that time.

   193  * We deliberately do not expose a way to convert TimeStamps to some
   194  * particular unit. All you can do is compute a difference between two
   195  * TimeStamps to get a TimeDuration. You can also add a TimeDuration
   196  * to a TimeStamp to get a new TimeStamp. You can't do something
   197  * meaningless like add two TimeStamps.

   208  * time_since_epoch() method that functions similiarly. i.e.
