next one (1_800_000_000) will be in 2027.

    I’ve been using Linux since 1996 and remember when time_t was less than a billion. I guess I’ve found a new way to date myself. Slightly interestingly I thought, 1 billion was a couple of days before 9/11 which some have said defines the modern era or epoch.
