I've read a lot online about how "Y2K was overblown". As an engineer who worked like crazy in 1999 to correct our systems this drives me crazy.
Today I read about games going offline, watches getting frozen and airline tickets showing the wrong date.
Because of a leap year. Which happens every FOUR years (give or take).
Yeah Y2K was a once every 1000 year issue.
Isn't 2038 going to be fun.
I don't know what the fuss about leap years is about when too many people seem unwilling to properly account for the existence of non-binary folks in their code (or, heaven forbid, politics).
Statistically, Feb 29th is even rarer.
What's next, elements other than H/He in the universe‽ Don't be ridiculous
