Happy 1200000000!

At 22:00, of the 10th of January yesterday, it became 1200000000 seconds unix time!

Bring out the champagne!

Hell yeah! I actually witnessed the rollover as I was dating a log file with a timestamp. At first, I was stumped, thinking I had done something wrong. Then I realized what had happened! :D

Really, it wasnt exactly at 22:00.
1200000000 can't be at an exact hour.

Yes you are right. I got dragged along in the enthusiasm. The correct moment was:

$ date +%s -d "2008-01-10 21:20 UTC"
1200000000

P.s.: The jungle is massive.

Honestly, Pimbert, how could you not immediately see that 1200000000 % 3600 != 0 ?!?!? Where's your calculation ability?
