Forget about ISO 8601 and customary standards, let's use SI units. Approximately 63 838 093.83 kiloseconds have passed since the beginning of the so-called "common era" in Greenwich.
is that fast SI seconds or slow SI seconds? (alt text)
Basically used averages:
2022 × 31 556 952 + 11 × 2 629 746 + 11 × 86 400 + [Hours] × 3 600 + [Minutes] × 60
I don't remember the time it was when I did this lol. Basically, current date minus one and the time as is, times the average seconds for each. I just used 0001 as the "beginning of the common era" just to simplify things lol.
Edit: I used 0001 as the "beginning of the common era."
