The main panel makes a joke that the figure of 110,000 years is precise but wildly wrong while that Tukey's birthday is "sometime this week" is vague but basically correct. The alt-text is most likely true (I haven't checked) because of leap years.
The one day difference is probably because of the rules of leap years. Most century years (like 1800, 1900, 2100) do not have a leap year, but 2000 did have a leap year. Leap year placement is done to approximate Earth's ratio of 365.2422 days per year. 134.134.139.69 21:09, 18 June 2025 (UTC)
