#Y2k38-Bug
Just 14years till the Y2K38 bug 😅. Jan 19, 2038, when 32-bit systems run out of seconds since 1970.

We found our first #y2k38 bug today, in #Keycloak‘s Client credential rotation feature. https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak/issues/35104

Will probably not be the last one - the runup to 2038 will be interesting.

We might be 25 years on from the Y2K bug but we’re now only 13 years away from the next time based apocalypse- Y2K38 when Unix time is destined to roll over unless its fixed. Some are getting on with the fixes:

Saw this sticker and had a good laugh, but the Y2K38 bug is real. This time it won't affect our computers & phones, but infrastructure like power plants, transportation systems, and embedded industrial devices running 32-bit code. They might not be so lucky and could face failures if not updated!

AOLserver 2038 Problem – Die Ewigkeit endet 2038: Der erste Y2K38-Bug
2006 stürzte AOLserver über ein „unendliches“ Timeout ab – die Geburtsstunde des Y2K38-Bugs und ein Vorgeschmack auf das Jahr 2038 Problem.

Da kommt Rolf, murmelt "Fünf ist Trümpf" und hält im Nebel ein Schild hoch "Y2K38-Bug!". Daneben springt ein rosa Kaninchen umher und pinkelt "29MRZ25" in den Schnee - die apokalyptische, alles verschlingende Sonnenfinsternis! 😵

Also. Bei dem Nebel seh ich ohne Brille besser. Alles seltsam heute!😲

Dateline 2039: society has collapsed months after the Y2K38 bug rendered Linux systems inoperable globally. Meanwhile, over on LinkedIn, business continues unabated as all non-AI members of the site had left over 15 years earlier. A new sentient-ish AI CEO recently signed up and posted a job […]

It's just the Y2K38 bug kicking in early.

Docker bets on AI agents, Amazon’s Prime Day runs on hidden machine learning, Qualcomm buys Arduino, new WhatsApp malware spreads fast, and the Y2K38 bug resurfaces.

In software it's probably either the Y2K38 bug or the general intractability of managing the sprawl of data in cloud services in 2025, although I like to believe we've made significant progress on both of those

👉 Neuer Blog: „time_t Cast Away: Bits über Bord und der Y2K38 Bug ist zurück“

Die Umstellung auf 64-Bit-time_t gilt als Lösung für das Year 2038 Problem. Doch Direct Casts machen den Fix schnell unwirksam – und schicken uns zurück ins Jahr 1901.

Auf das Wortspiel bin ich ein bisschen stolz ☺️ […]

If you don't believe the y2k38 bug exists. We found it in a Sony TV.

Erneut eine Y2K38-Sicherheitslücke – wieder mitten in der Industrie. Ausgelöst durch den Y2K38-Bug.

Dass die Schwachstelle erkannt wurde, ist der Arbeit von Pedro Umbelino und Trey Darley zu verdanken.

Wir sagen wieder: Epochalypse Now!

Some work has begun to mitigate the Y2K38 bug that plagues 32-bit systems:

"There is quite a lot of cost-sensitive 32-bit computing still out there, and still shipping new devices (automotive, IoT, TVs, routers, plant control, building monitoring/control, cheap Android phones)."

2038 ist näher, als man denkt – und diesmal tickt die Bombe im Silizium.
Ob Hardware-RTC, Mikrocontroller oder FPGA: Viele Chips haben nur 32 Bit Zeit übrig. Im Blog haben wir eine Übersicht erstellt: von Dallas RTCs bis zu STM32 und NXP LPC.

I'm waiting for the comedy shit show that will be the Y2K38 "bug" coming to fruition, since apparently people now have decided it's better to get bit in the ass than mitigate the problems we can see coming.
