      It’ll only affect 32bit systems with ancient operating systems storing dates in epoch time.

      Not a small number. But nowhere remotely near what Y2K could have been.

      Hopefully by the time we need to account for a 64bit rollover, I’ll be comfortably retired. But by that time, proton decay may be a more worrisome problem.
