Which "epoch?"
To mention (blatantly lifted from WP) a few:
- ( (31 Dec 01(BCE) 23:59:59) + 1 sec ) - MATLAB & Symbian
- 01 January 01 - M$ .NET
- 01 Jan 1601 - NTFS, COBOL, Win32/Win64
- 01 Jan 1753 - M$ SQL Server
- 30 Dec 1899 - M$ COM DATE, Object Pascal
- 01 Jan 1904 - Mac OS thrru V9 & Palm OS
- 31 Dec 1967- Pick OS
- 01 Jan 1970 - Unix time & languages such as Perl, C, Java, JS
- 01 Jan 1980 - DOS, OS/2, FAT16 and FAT32 filesystems
- 01 Jan 2001 - Apple's Cocoa framework
Who wudda' thunk M$ would assert so many different epochs?.
If you didn't program your executable by toggling in binary, it wasn't really programming!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
