25 years ago tonight! There's a lot of people making light of the fact that, after all the hype and awareness campaigns like the video below, nothing actually happened. I was part of the grind to get everything fixed in time so I can confidently say that nothing happened because millions of programmers did their job with rigour. Stop making fun of it! BBC I'm looking at you! 🫵 #y2k #y2kbug #milleniumbug

Editorial: How Y2K Helped to Shape My Skepticism Towards Moral Panics

Drew Wilson talks about how his experience with the Y2K bug helped to shape his thinking when dealing with moral panics.

The TRS-80 Model 100 - Released 40 years ago today! I bought a used one a while back, and probably last used it in the late 90s. I found it in a box in the basement recently, put new batteries in it, and it still works! (It only allows a 2-digit year, though, so it displays the year as 1923!)

I'm looking forward to the #y2k38 craze of the period leading up to #2038.
Was it just #1999 and the first weeks of #2000 when the general populace was concerned about the #y2kBug aka the #milleniumBug? Or did it worry people for longer than that?
I feel like I should know it better, but it's almost 2 decades ago and I was about 16 at the start of 2000 and was probably keeping myself occupied with other things.
