Frequently Asked Questions
Unix timestamp (epoch time) is the number of seconds elapsed since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC. It's a universal way to represent time that's timezone-independent and easy to compare.
Seconds timestamp: 10-digit number (e.g., 1718196000). Milliseconds timestamp: 13-digit number (e.g., 1718196000000). JavaScript uses milliseconds (Date.now()), while Unix and Python typically use seconds.
Epoch 0 is January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC, also known as the "Unix Epoch" or "Unix Time Zero." All Unix timestamps are measured from this point.
The 32-bit Unix timestamp will overflow on January 19, 2038 (the "Year 2038 problem"). Modern systems use 64-bit timestamps which won't overflow for billions of years.
JavaScript: Date.now() or Math.floor(Date.now()/1000) for seconds. Python: import time; time.time(). PHP: time(). Java: System.currentTimeMillis().
