Powershell Measuring seconds elapsed

Read Original

The article details a common PowerShell pitfall where the .Seconds property of a TimeSpan object resets after 60 seconds, unlike .TotalSeconds. The author shares a debugging story from a script monitoring a Docker service's health, showing how the bug prevented a service restart. The solution is to always use .TotalSeconds, .TotalMinutes, etc., for accurate elapsed time measurements.
