- mdemare 19y agoThis doesn't mean a whole lot to me. I am, however, looking forward to turning 30 in two years. The big 2^30. Will I live to see 2^31? I don't know... All this is assuming that time exists, of course.
- sanj 19y agoBack about 200 000 000 seconds ago, I had the joy of attending a 'billenium' party -- complete with countdown clock. The best part was that the party was inspired by a bug in our code caused by the rollover. In short, there were time values stored in the DB as text -- everything in our DB was text -- and we were using the expedient route of doing simple string compares. I won't bother explaining more. But the cake was tasty!
