Writing with four digits doesn't induce any Y10k problem. We write dates with as many digits as they need; for example, we write the year 327 with three digits.

- rbanffy 5y agoIn the best interest of future generations, we should specify that this count is in the Christian Era. Our descendants may want to reset the count (and change the duration of a standard year) at some point.

- kragen 5y agoJust for redundancy, we should include the Hebrew calendar year (5782), the Mayan Long Count date (13.0.9.5.16—sorry, I don't have my keybindings set up to type Maya numerals), and the Hindu calendar (Kali Yuga year 5123). You can't be too careful!
