I think we can defederate that company’s name from our personal vocabulary instances.

    Eh, it only being an issue for 32-bit systems will hopefully help. But of course somebody will still be running that in 15 years.

      Lots of financial institutions are still using software programmed with Cobol. My father graduated with a software engineering degree for Cobol in the mid-1970s. My company provides external API for customers who still use green screen terminals. Of course there will be people running 32-bit systems. And I’m sure there will be well-paid jobs for fixing any date overflow on those systems.
