In traditional UNIX implementations , time_t was an int, and the int was signed 32 bits. The count starts with 0:00:00 on January 1, 1970, universal time, as 0 seconds.
Therefore, the maximum value is (2^31−1) = 2,147,483,647, and it can handle 2,147,483,647 seconds (≒ 68 years, until 3:14:07 on January 19, 2038).
If the time_t type is changed to a signed 64-bit integer type, the maximum value is (2^63-1) = 9,223,372,036,8 54,775,807, and can be used up to 300 billion years in the Christian era.
Based on this, it is 36 bits to be able to count until the end of 3038.

Hi,
I just noticed your post in the "C# memory problem: no end for our problem?"
thread.
In the post you implied that I do not how the garbage collector works and
that I mislead people. Since the thread is over a month old, I decided to
start a new one with my response.
Please see my comments inline.

I've got a problem with the RichTextBox control in .Net
where the garbage collector doesn't reclaim its memory
after I've finished with it.
My program adds a series of rtb's to the control array of a
panel to make a basic text editor. When the form that the
panel is on is closed these rtb's are still in memory.
If you want to see the probelm try this:

A field in a data set I want to import into Access is in Unix time (seconds from
a certain time on a certain date). Does anyone know the precise date and the
precise time on that date that Unix is based on?
How do I calculate the Date when I have Unix seconds? Will the calculation take
into account leap years?
Thanks!

I have the information given by java in a format ARGB and I would like to

I have Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.
I was just reading up about UTC and leap seconds.
Is it true on my system that the Unix time may skip up or down by one second
at midnight when there is a leap second?
By "Unix time" I mean the integer returned by time() and similar functions.
I'm concerned about the "down" case. Some of the software I've written

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
