Instead of jumping an hour twice a year, shift a little bit each day. The offset rises smoothly from 0 at winter solstice to +60 minutes at summer solstice and back. Max daily change is ~32 seconds.William Willett's original 1907 proposal was actually 8 shifts of 20 minutes —- four forward in spring, four back in autumn. Gentler on humans than what we ended up with.
