It seems like user prithviraj7 registered 46 years ago. :p I want to know how Codeforces scans the time when a user registers. Yeah it's not an important issue but it surprised me when I noticed it first time.

It's probably a bug, since 46 years ago would be the start time of the unix epoch: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time Timestamps are usually held as the number of seconds since 1 Jan 1970, and that field is probably 0.
