Unix day 1234567890

At 3.31 PST on Friday 13th, or on Valentines day depending whre you live, Unix computer clocks reached the time of 1234567890–1.2 billion seconds elapsed from January 1, 1970, the official beginning of the Unix epoch.

The clock is used not just by Unix, but also by Linux, Java, JavaScript, Mac OS X, and various other technologies.

That’s my bit of trivia for this week 🙂
