Ruby's Time
class has an #at
method that allows you
get the time at a certain unix epoch timestamp. That timestamp is an integer
value representing the number of seconds since the unix epoch. While it is a
handy way to store that data, it is hard to tell what time it represents at a
glance.
Time.at(1669652477)
=> 2022-11-28 10:21:17 -0600
Using Time.at
we are able to turn that integer into a Time
object that
represents the date and time in a human-readable way.
