1: Count the Digits Before You Trust the Date
A 10-digit number is almost always seconds, a 13-digit number is almost always milliseconds. If a converted date lands decades off from what you expected, the unit — not the value — is usually the bug.
2: Timestamps Don't Change, Displays Do
A Unix timestamp represents one fixed instant everywhere in the world. If two systems show different times for the same value, the timestamp isn't wrong — something in how it's being displayed or converted for a timezone is.
