Personnel

gollark: When using sane non-JS stuff I try to use 64-bit timestamps so they'll be valid for 584 million years.
gollark: They'll probably begin to break a bit beforehand, due to inaccurate clocks and computing timestamps a bit in the future for various purposes.
gollark: At least JS isn't C, I suppose.
gollark: It's a safe language with no problems and I'm sure all my dependencies will keep working up to then!
gollark: I'm making sure all my stuff is Y2038-ready by programming them entirely in JS!
