    Don’t worry, we’re not far away from 2038, when 32 bit unix time rolls over 😅

      I will be so excited if we make it that far, double if I’m alive to see it.

        double

        I hope you’re not storing time in floating point.

        We won’t be around, but Unix time will be.

          This is correct Unix time is eternal i kinda wished we would change the calendar again 1970 is just as arbitrary as 2024 years ago so why not set the mark at 1970. Tomorrow will be Jan 1st 0055

      <Padme mode> Hopefully we are all working on 64 bit dates, right? right? </Padme mode> :^)

        A surprising number of embedded devices (you know, the ones controlling machinery in factories and stuff) are still running 32-bit processors.

          But you can still do 64 bit math on a 32 bit processor, if you have a carry/borrow flag.
