Frequently asked questions
How does it detect the unit?＋
By the number's magnitude — it decides whether the timestamp is in seconds, milliseconds, microseconds or nanoseconds, then decodes the date.
Why does this matter?＋
APIs and logs disagree on precision. JavaScript uses milliseconds while many systems use seconds — mixing them is off by 1000×.
