The final goal is to make two lines and find the intersection point.
I don't want to argue more about the reason.

The tol suggestion is reasonable, and I'll take that.

The fact that you think x~y is interchangeable with y~x suggests to me that you 
will have a difficult time convincing R Core that this is a bug. I recommend 
that you take at leastan upper division college course in linear regression 
first.

Yes, I know the answer. When trying R, I'm surprised that R can't solve

that either. I first noticed that PostgreSQL can't solve it, and found
that they fixed that in pg 12.

https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/153313051300.1397.9594490737341194671%40wrigleys.postgresql.org

Therefore I come to ask whether someone know how to fix this in R, or I

must submit it as a bug?

Perhaps subtract 1506705766 from y?

Saying some other software does it well implies you know what the
_correct_ answer is here but I would question what that means with
this
sort of data-set.

Hi,

This input doesn't have any interesting properties except y is unix
time. Spreadsheets can do this well.
Is this a bug that lm can't do x ~ y?
