Ah, the infamous Y2K countdown—23:59 on December 31, 1999. That magical moment when developers worldwide were either drunk with confidence or hiding in bunkers because their lazy predecessors decided two digits for years was "future-proof enough." Billions spent fixing code, mass hysteria about planes falling from the sky, and nuclear missiles launching themselves... only for absolutely nothing catastrophic to happen. The greatest anticlimax in tech history, brought to you by the same industry that now thinks blockchain will solve world hunger.
