Wtf is this headline? When this guy dies you put the GMT he died at in hours, minutes, seconds. Not "85". Respect.
Better to represent it as a 64-bit unsigned fixed-point number, in seconds relative to 0000 UT on 1 January 1900. It's how he would have wanted it.
Not 1970?
No. 1970 is 0 in Unix time. The NTP RFC specifies 1900. I had to look it up!
Epoch comeback!
