What is a Unix timestamp?
A Unix timestamp is the number of seconds or milliseconds elapsed since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC (called the "Unix Epoch"). For example, 1699999999 represents 2023-11-14 22:13:19 UTC.
What is the difference between seconds and milliseconds timestamps?
Seconds timestamps are 10 digits (e.g., 1699999999), milliseconds are 13 digits (e.g., 1699999999000). JavaScript's Date.now() returns milliseconds; most other programming languages return seconds.
How do I see the current timestamp?
