Would be better as 4,294,967,295 instead of -1.
The original post would be the result of subtracting the same date in two different time zones that are currently in different days. Whereas what you’re saying is basically just an under flow error.
What I’m saying is just a level deeper for comp sci people. It’s the same thing, but expressed on a 32-bit unsigned integer.
Same result. Deeper joke.
