Having watched another video saying Y2K wasn’t real - my standard clarification
Did the media blow the situation up? Yes
Was it a real issue? Also yes.
The reason not much happened was because hordes of developers worked tirelessly to fix systems, I know, I was one of them.
Trust me - stuff was going to break, I saw code for Banks, Hospitals and Mass transport and it was all going to fail

@jonn_blanchard Same. I spent quite a while testing stuff related to radioactive materials.
