Some of you may know that the UNIX time is set to roll over 1234567890 seconds today, Feb 13 2009 at 18:31:30 EST. This isn’t of any particular significance, but it is sort of cool for some people (most of you probably don’t care about this).
I’ve seen numerous Web sites telling you that you can run a one-line Perl script on a *nix or Mac terminal to find when this time is in your time zone. But there’s a much simpler command that doesn’t involve Perl, scalars, quotes, or anything like that.
1 | date -d @1234567890 |
Try it.
