He is talking out of his arse.

Date values are stored in database tables in whatever internal format the
designers choose. It may well be in UNIX datetime format, but it is likely
to be anything.

Rather than looking at what weblogger guys write, why not use the manual for
whatever product you are using.

Oh that's right, you don't want to use the manual for something as "simple"
as dates, you want to spend hours getting it wrong. Silly me, I forgot!
