Had a situation on this PR. As I filled in the comment, I saw:

myii requested review from aboe76 and noelmcloughlin 3 minutes from now

To be fair, this soon became:

myii requested review from aboe76 and noelmcloughlin 4 minutes ago

So probably just a glitch. Just to be clear, from now connotes a future event, as mentioned on this page.

This is caused by a difference in clock time on the client and server.
