Good point... but how long will it be before people are talking about the Year 2038 problem ... 2038-01-19 03:14:07 .... how much code will still be around using 32 bit arithmetic ...there was a time when the computing world was going to come to an end at midnight on 1/1/2000 ... probably should have been more concerned about 9/9/99 ... I heard back in 2016 that some Motor Vehicle Agencies were issuing new licenses to young folks listing their age as 116 due to Y2K issues ... where has all the COBOL gone ...
