Frequently asked questions

Seconds or milliseconds?

Classic Unix time counts seconds; JavaScript uses milliseconds. 13-digit values are milliseconds, 10-digit are seconds — the tool understands both.

What is the year 2038 problem?

32-bit systems store seconds in a signed 32-bit integer that overflows on 19 Jan 2038; modern 64-bit time is fine.

Why does my timestamp show the "wrong" hour?

Timestamps are timezone-less UTC moments; the displayed hour depends on which zone you render them in.
