I had trouble in the past to make any model give me accurate unix epochs for specific dates.
I just went to GPT-4o (via DDG) and asked three questions:
1. Please give me the unix epoch for September 1, 2020 at 1:00 GMT.
> 1598913600
2. Please give me the unix epoch for September 1, 2020 at 1:00 GMT. Before reaching the conclusion of the answer, please output the entire chain of thought, your reasoning, and the maths you're doing, until your arrive at (and output) the result. Then, after you arrive at the result, make an extra effort to continue, and do the analysis backwards (as if you were writing a unit test for the result you achieved), to verify that your result is indeed correct.

OT: Hello howmayiannoyyou, can I by any chance interview you for 10 min for feedback on a product I'm building? It looks to me that it fits part of the workflow you mentioned, and it would be useful to hear your perspective. My email is on my profile. Thanks!
I had a Mailchimp list on a very specific niche, and a website with the sole purpose of offering the signup. Lots of people signed up. I used double opt-in, lost a few there. Then, every email I sent had the conspicuous unsub link right on the top. Few people unsubscribed. That list had some 20% open rate and 12% click rate IIRC. That was many years ago.
I noticed some correlation: the larger was the time since signup to receiving the first newsletter, the more people were likely to unsubscribe.
I'd say, send those newsletters, or your subscribers may forget about you.
