Hard to believe that we’re rolling up to the end of another decade – the “aught’s”.
Ten years ago we were all sitting around wondering (and working) whether the clocks would all roll over and the world would still function – after spending years on computer-related Y2K projects!
That whole experience sure feels like a lot more than 10 years ago – to me anyway!
SInce nothing really happened, it does seem like a long time ago. Of course I was ‘on-call’ in the software business at the time. Our next problem will occur in 2038 when some old Unix machines 32 bit clock will roll over…hopefully most old machines are gone by then!!
