	"github.com/cactus/tai64"
)

func main() {
	t := time.Now()
	fmt.Println(t)

	s := tai64.FormatNano(t)
	fmt.Println(s)

	p, err := tai64.Parse(s)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println("Failed to decode time")
		os.Exit(1)
	}

    // tai64 times are in UTC
    fmt.Println(p)

    // time.Equal properly compares times with different locations.
	if t.Equal(p) {
		fmt.Println("equal")
	} else {
		fmt.Println("not equal")
	}
}
