Comments in Local Time ( source code) is a gadget that changes UTC -based dates, such as those in signatures, to be relative to the user's local time. It also adds the day of the week to dates, and uses common phrases to describe dates (i.e., Today, 2 months ago, etc.). This script uses plain JavaScript, making pages load significantly faster ...
Such designations can be ambiguous; for example, "CST" can mean China Standard Time (UTC+8), Cuba Standard Time (UTC−5), and (North American) Central Standard Time (UTC−6), and it is also a widely used variant of ACST (Australian Central Standard Time, UTC+9:30). Such designations predate both ISO 8601 and the internet era; in an earlier ...
Time zones in ISO 8601 are represented as local time (with the location unspecified), as UTC, or as an offset from UTC. Local time (unqualified) If no UTC relation information is given with a time representation, the time is assumed to be in local time. While it may be safe to assume local time when communicating in the
This is a list of the UTC time offsets, showing the difference in hours and minutes from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), from the westernmost (−12:00) to the easternmost (+14:00). It includes countries and regions that observe them during standard time or year-round. The main purpose of this page is to list the current standard time offsets ...
Coordinated Universal Time ( UTC) is the primary time standard globally used to regulate clocks and time. It establishes a reference for the current time, forming the basis for civil time and time zones. UTC facilitates international communication, navigation, scientific research, and commerce. UTC has been widely embraced by most countries and ...
Unix time is currently defined as the number of non-leap seconds which have passed since 00:00:00 UTC on Thursday, 1 January 1970, which is referred to as the Unix epoch. [3] Unix time is typically encoded as a signed integer . The Unix time 0 is exactly midnight UTC on 1 January 1970, with Unix time incrementing by 1 for every non-leap second ...
The UTC offset is the difference in hours and minutes between Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and local solar time, at a particular place. This difference is expressed with respect to UTC and is generally shown in the format ± [hh]: [mm], ± [hh] [mm], or ± [hh]. So if the time being described is two hours ahead of UTC (such as in Kigali ...
IRIG J-1 timecode consists of 15 characters (150 bit times), sent once per second at a baud rate of 300 or greater: <SOH>DDD:HH:MM:SS<CR><LF>. SOH is the ASCII "start of header" code, with binary value 0x01. DDD is the ordinal date (day of year), from 1 to 366. HH, MM and SS are the time of the start bit.
