DateTime precision vs accuracy?

Question

Answer 1

The problem that arises with having that much precision is of course that it is very easy to assume that a given value is as accurate as it is precise. But that’s not warranted at all! I can represent my height in a double-precision floating point number as 1.799992352094 metres; though precise to a trillionth of a metre, it’s only accurate to about a hundredth of a metre because I do not have a device which can actually measure my height to a trillionth of a meter, or even a thousandth of a metre. There is way more precision than accuracy here.
