Given the fact that this function returns a `Result`, in case of a failure, the function should either return an `Err` or silent fail. When using `expect`, the program just panics, so none of the above situations happen. I have replaced `expect` with `and_then`. Now the code silent fails in case time before UNIX epoch is not supported, returning `None` instead. Signed-off-by: Costin-Robert Sin <[email protected]>
