And "date rape".

Idk about the book, but the reason 2038 is a common date is that computers store the date as milliseconds from 1970. At some point in the year 2038 the maximum number of milliseconds for any non-64 bit computer won't suffice to store the date and clocks will reset to zero. This sounds like the stupid Y2K but this is actually bad because we can not fix it on old hardware as multiple programs rely on that number being 32 bit long. You would literally be forced to change the operating system on all those machines and then recompile the programs. Not fun and in some cases not even feasible.

I would say they are more political than videogames because by definition you are playing it with people on the same room and you might end up discussing about the real events the game is referencing.

Fph ended in /all pretty often and made fat people sad. Between that and the fact that the user base is more fat than black it had to go.

How did you find the bug? Where you looking for bugs? Did you stumbled upon it when looking at the code or when using openSSL?
