That was January 14, 2021, right?

On 23 Jan 2021 21:44 -0800, from ality(a)pbrane.org (Anthony Martin):
GNU date would appear to agree:
$ date --utc --date=@$(printf '%d' 0x60000000)
Thu 14 Jan 2021 08:25:36 UTC
$
(At least the version I've got handy doesn't seem to like a hex
seconds-since-epoch timestamp, so a separate conversion to decimal is
required in that case.)

I have a non-GNU one (as part of an unfinished *x I was developing) that
also doesn't like that, so it required this:
$ date -ur $(echo "ibase=16;60000000" | bc)
