Happy 40th Birthday Unix Epoch
2010-01-01 00:00:00
If you are reading this, it's the year 2010 (or later).. Happy new year.
When this posting went live at 1262304000 Unix time (or midnight on January 1st 2010), the Unix Epoch celebrated its 40th birthday.
The thing with the Unix Epoch (the number of seconds since 1970) is that each milestone is gone in.. well.. a second. There are so many of them. So maybe its main purpose is not for holding a party every time it gets to a special number like 1000000000 or 1234567890.
That aside, it's always nice to celebrate, so Happy Birthday Unix Epoch. Life begins at 40.
