Let's assume that the file never changes. At first, you're gonna wait 
$WATCH_DELAY seconds. Once that is over, you're going to run the check, but

    $LAST_CHANGED_AT < (stat($FILE_TO_WATCH))[9]

evaluates to false, the if-body isn't executed, $LAST_CHECKED_AT not being 
reset. And with the next (and all of the following) calls, you're gonna run 
stat() again, right?
