Date.now()
Ask any software engineer and they'll tell you that coding date logic can be a nightmare. Developers need to consider timezones, weird date defaults, and platform-specific date formats.

const now = Date.now(); // 1705190738870
I will oftentimes employ Date.now() in my console.log statements to differentiate likewise console.log results from each other. You could also use that date as a unique identifier for an event in a low-traffic environment.
