@MitchWagner what does the blog mean by “Y2K compliant”?
I saw Y2K referenced in the Sunday Times magazine too, and wondering if it’s to do with the disproven theory about millennium catastrophe
@warner It is indeed a reference to the millennium bug

Which may or may not have been exaggerated.
On my blog, it’s a joke.
@odd @MitchWagner Thanks for the reminder. I need to fix this. (Best work-around for now is using a Markdown link.)
@warner What do you mean by the ‘disproven theory’? If it’s the very idea that there was a problem, then you should be aware that there would have been problems if a lot of people hadn’t put in a lot of preventative work. Maybe not as severe as some stories suggested, but lots of confused financial systems, for instance.
The interest on your account from year 1999 to year zero? Aaaargh!
@devilgate if you were one of those prudent programmers, thank you for your service.
