If you remember fixing a Y2K bug, you must be an old geek.

There are plenty of people who worked on Y2K bugs who are not even old enough to be a US President.

I mean that sounds neat but the math doesn't match up.

You have to be 35 to be President, so being generous let's take a 35 year old now, so they were born in 1982 give or take (2017-35).

They would have had to get a programming job right out of HS and even then best case it would have been halfway through 1999. More accurately, they likely didn't enter the workforce until 2004 or 2005.

Or they'd have to have been programming as college students. This wasn't uncommon when I was in school.

Y2K bugs didn't disappear when the clock struck midnight on December 31. Many appeared for the first time.

Who was fixing Y2K bugs in 2004/5?
