What is a Unix timestamp?
A Unix timestamp is the number of seconds (or milliseconds) elapsed since the Unix epoch — midnight on 1 January 1970 UTC. Timestamps are timezone-agnostic: the same number represents the same instant in time everywhere in the world. They are widely used in databases, APIs, and log files.
