Sequential Time Friday 13th 2009, UNIX Timestamp 1234567890
- 8 de fevereiro de 2009
Friday the 13th are by culture days to be more attentive to everything and take care of possible troubles that may happen. This year 2009, the first Friday the 13th of the year happens in February. As if all the irrational belief we have regarding Friday the 13th wasn’t enough, on this February 13th, 2009 at 21:31:30 Brasília time, we’ll have a fantastic UNIX time!
It’s about the long-awaited numerical sequence: 1234567890! This number represents the specific UNIX timestamp for that moment, counting the seconds elapsed since January 1st, 1970 at 00:00:00 UTC (known as Unix Epoch).
The UNIX timestamp is a universal way to represent date and time as an integer. Used extensively in Unix/Linux systems, this format offers second-by-second precision and is a fundamental base for system synchronization around the world.
The sequence 1234567890 is mathematically special for being a natural and ordered sequence of digits (1-9 followed by 0), something that is easily memorable and represents a single occurrence in this specific order. The next similar sequence will only happen in 2282, when the UNIX timestamp reaches 9876543210, curiously, also on a Friday.
Crazy crazy crazy…
