I'm no expert with awk, but here's something i'd like to share:
While i do agree that one-liners are cool, there are occasions it just makes no sense.
Saying, a well formated code is easier to read - and find issues/improvements, than within a one liner of that length. (me have FHD (1920x1080) display, and i need to scroll sideways)
This said, you might want to use a function (rather than an if-block) to transform time and date to seconds and to avoid things like:
For which you could have just written +0.
Once you transformed the date+time to seconds, you simply subtract the one from the other and get the difference.
