The year 2038 problem (also known as Y2038, [1] Y2K38, Y2K38 superbug or the Epochalypse[2][3]) is a time computing problem that leaves some computer systems unable to represent times after 03:14:07 UTC on 19 January 2038. The problem exists in systems which measure Unix time —the number of seconds elapsed since the Unix epoch (00:00:00 UTC ...
The term year 2000 problem, or simply Y2K, refers to potential computer errors related to the formatting and storage of calendar data for dates in and after the year 2000. Many programs represented four-digit years with only the final two digits, making the year 2000 indistinguishable from 1900. Computer systems' inability to distinguish dates ...
Unix time[a] is a date and time representation widely used in computing. It measures time by the number of non- leap seconds that have elapsed since 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 1970, the Unix epoch. For example, at midnight on January 1 2010, Unix time was 1262304000. Unix time originated as the system time of Unix operating systems.
Epoch (computing) In computing, an epoch is a fixed date and time used as a reference from which a computer measures system time. Most computer systems determine time as a number representing the seconds removed from a particular arbitrary date and time. For instance, Unix and POSIX measure time as the number of seconds that have passed since ...
Add the value to the X Epoch of 1288834974657 (in Unix time milliseconds), [5] the Unix time of the tweet is therefore 1656432460.105: June 28, 2022 16:07:40.105 UTC. The middle 10 bits 01 0111 1010 are the machine ID. The last 12 bits decode to all zero, meaning this tweet is the first tweet processed by the machine at the given millisecond.

Timestamp. An actual time- stamp from around 1960. A timestamp is a sequence of characters or encoded information identifying when a certain event occurred, usually giving date and time of day, sometimes accurate to a small fraction of a second. Timestamps do not have to be based on some absolute notion of time, however.
IRIG J-1 timecode consists of 15 characters (150 bit times), sent once per second at a baud rate of 300 or greater: <SOH>DDD:HH:MM:SS<CR><LF>. SOH is the ASCII "start of header" code, with binary value 0x01. DDD is the ordinal date (day of year), from 1 to 366. HH, MM and SS are the time of the start bit.
