    he just retired this year!

    (so… uh… what happens in 2038?) (edit… I’ll worry about 2038 if we actually get to 2030.)

      Unix time starts January 1st, 1970 and counts the number of seconds since then.

      Right now it is 1718265480 (approximately).

      That’s stored in a 32 bit signed integer. It hits max int in January of 2038.
