Heute soll ja der Computer Geburtstag haben. Er soll einer Erzählung nach am 9. September 1947 das erste mal aufgetreten sein. Happy Birthday! Bestimmt lebt er noch lange weiter. Mindestens bis ins Jahr 2038

Please tell me that this 32-bit OS has a 64-bit time_t ("bigtime") so that we don't have to scrap it in 2038!

"The utmp implementation of glibc uses on quite some 64bit architectures a 32bit time variable, which leads to an overflow on 03:14:07 UTC on 19 January 2038. This talk will explain the current work on replacing utmp with logind."

Holger Ahrens hat sich ein paar Gedanken zum Thema und geplanter Obsoleszenz gemacht.

@danimrich @wanisbunes Verstehe. Habe ich falsch verstanden. Dachte das automatisch via GPS bezieht sich auf die Sommerzeit 🫣Interessant finde ich, dass schon jetzt Fehler auftreten. Das nächste GPS Week roll-over passiert ja "erst" 2038. Und dann haben wir noch ein ganz anderes Zeit Problem 😁

"I would assume that all the COBOL code that was fixed for the Y2K bug was changed to use 2 digits for the year." [Actually meaning 4 digits for the year?]
I would assume that much of the COBOL (and other) code which was fixed to handle Y2K in fact was adjusted to use a sliding 2-digit window, and as such isn't 'fixed', and may still fail horribly in many other situations, including Y2K38.
Not _all_ of it, but some of it.

Seen a few posts popping up lately, which makes me happy.

Partly because it means it's still on someone's radar.

Partly because now is an excellent time to be planning for it.

But mostly because it's my retirement plan. At least this time around, the code archaeology will involve less COBOL.

Well, Y2K problems did normally not manifest 15 years in advance (although I can imagine some mortgage software starting to fail in 1985 for a 15 year period)…

The 32-bit-date-apocalypse is looming!

@ilona_schmidt @wrzlbrnft Natürlich ist das Smartphone nicht das Problem. Das auf 64-bit Systemen kein Problem ist, ist jedoch ein Mythos. So wie noch einige Halbwahrheiten in diesem ORF Bericht wiederholt werden: war eine Lachnummer, IT-ler werden das Problem schon lösen usw. Wir bleiben jedenfalls dran.
