Oh boy here we go again with 32 bit signed int time_t problem. This is a real problem. Unix is embedded in lots of stuff that doesn't update. We will have real issues with those systems
This is a meme that refers to the year 2038 problem. It has the text "What if we kissed" at the top. The meme shows a Perl script that performs date calculations. However, when the year reaches 2038, a bug in the 32-bit signed integer time_t causes the date to reset back to 1901. The text at the bottom reads "At Unix time reset".

@nixCraft At least we have another 15 years to figure things out, surely by then people will have figured out a solution...
