Generation

Unix epoch time is a system for tracking time as the number of seconds elapsed since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC (excluding leap seconds). It provides a standardized, simple way for computers to store and calculate dates and times across different systems and programming languages. This timestamp format is fundamental to modern computing, used in file systems, databases, and countless applications worldwide.
