Kaum spürbar, längst abgefangen
Spürbare Ausfälle in Systemen
Epochalypse ist nicht mehr aufzuhalten
Keine Ahnung, aber klingt nach Chaos

Y2K38 kommt. Milliarden Systeme sind betroffen.

Open Source wird kritisiert – dabei entstehen die Lösungen oft genau dort.

Das Problem ist nicht der Code.
Das Problem ist, wie wir damit umgehen.

👉 Wer zahlt am Ende die Rechnung?

Funny how the greatest threat to civilization at the time turned out to be programming dates. And yet, not a single flying toaster apocalypse.

Turns out, much of the Y2K panic was way overblown—most of those doomsday stories didn’t even come close to reality. Hindsight really is 20/20.

Freitag, der 13. bringt angeblich Pech. Vielleicht auch mit realen Auswirkungen.
Y2K38 bringt ziemlich sicher Probleme.
Wir haben den Zusammenhang gesucht – und tatsächlich einen gefunden 😉

#Y2K38 is näher als wir denken :D

Some notes on Y2K38, time_t, and why “modern systems are safe” is an oversimplification.
It’s less about a single date in 2038, and more about how legacy assumptions around time still shape modern software.

Y2K38: the bug that's been counting down since 1970

In 2038, a signed 32-bit integer runs out of room to hold time. The openSUSE community is already finding the cracks — and the results are more interesting than you'd expect.
