RE: NOW that is a dated post:

I've seen that a few times over the last months.

Maybe a zero initialized date variable in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time

  Have a nice day

RE: NOW that is a dated post:

Sure; and funny in a sense when I realize that I was born before that big bang. Can I exist then?

I just wanted to signal, that this was not a one-off but maybe a recurring off-by-one error (pun intended).

Great question.  Today yes, then, not so sure.  

I was 2years old.

RE: NOW that is a dated post:

I sometimes wonder, whether it acually is the reverse.

then: life was easy (pre-Kindergarden), never heard of computer, self-conciousness not yet developped (I just was), ignorance was a blessing

now: Time feels to accelerate (despite covid-lockdown). Will the world end with 4-byte date overflow in 2038? C++ chrono epoch to the rescue! OMG, these nerds.
