FAQ
What is a Unix timestamp?
A Unix timestamp (also known as Epoch time or POSIX time) is the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970 at 00:00:00 UTC. It is widely used in computing to represent dates and times as a single integer, making it easy to store, compare, and calculate time differences.
What is epoch time?
Epoch time refers to the reference point from which Unix timestamps are measured: midnight on January 1, 1970 UTC. This date is known as the Unix epoch. All Unix timestamps count the number of seconds before or after this moment.
What is the difference between seconds and milliseconds?
Unix timestamps are traditionally measured in seconds since the epoch. However, many programming languages and APIs (such as JavaScript's Date.now()) use milliseconds instead. To convert between them, multiply seconds by 1000 to get milliseconds, or divide milliseconds by 1000 to get seconds.
Will Unix timestamps ever run out?
On systems that store timestamps as a 32-bit signed integer, the maximum representable date is January 19, 2038 at 03:14:07 UTC. This is known as the Year 2038 problem. Most modern systems now use 64-bit integers, which can represent dates billions of years into the future.
