On 5 January 1975, the 12-bit field that had been used for dates in the TOPS-10 operating system for DEC PDP-10 computers overflowed, in a bug known as "DATE75". The field value was calculated by taking the number of years since 1964, multiplying by 12, adding the number of months since January, multiplying by 31, and adding the number of days since the start of the month; putting 2 12 − 1 ...
Many computer systems measure time and date using Unix time, an international standard for digital timekeeping.Unix time is defined as the number of seconds elapsed since 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 1970 (an arbitrarily chosen time based on the creation of the first Unix system), which has been dubbed the Unix epoch.
Software timekeeping systems vary widely in the resolution of time measurement; some systems may use time units as large as a day, while others may use nanoseconds.For example, for an epoch date of midnight UTC (00:00) on 1 January 1900, and a time unit of a second, the time of the midnight (24:00) between 1 January 1900 and 2 January 1900 is represented by the number 86400, the number of ...
The 12-hour clock is a time convention in which the 24 hours of the day are divided into two periods: a.m. (from Latin ante meridiem, translating to "before midday") and p.m. (from Latin post meridiem, translating to "after midday"). [1] [2] Each period consists of 12 hours numbered: 12 (acting as 0), [3] 1, 2, 3, 4
This can be changed by setting an offset. For an integer number of hours use parameter 1. Otherwise use offset. The current UTC time is 3:14 pm on 3 December 2024 (use {{12-hour time}}) The current time in city Saskatoon is 8:14 am on 3 December 2024 (use {{12-hour time|-7}}) The current time in Darwin is 12:44 am on 4 December 2024 (use {{12 ...
ISO 8601 is an international standard covering the worldwide exchange and communication of date and time-related data.It is maintained by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and was first published in 1988, with updates in 1991, 2000, 2004, and 2019, and an amendment in 2022.

December 14, 2024 at 12:04 AM If you’re stuck on today’s Wordle answer, we’re here to help—but beware of spoilers for Wordle 1274 ahead. Let's start with a few hints.
The default date format is day month year. For month day year use {{12-hour time|format=mdy}}, for example 6:20 am on December 4, 2024; The default is not to show seconds or the day of the week. To display these use {{12-hour time|sec=on}} and/or {{12-hour time|dow=on}} respectively, for example 6:20:43 am on 4 December 2024; 6:20 am on ...
