Java is religiously backwards compatible. Modern java projects are not as enterprisey and boilerplatey, but, as jdk21 is backwards compatible with jdk1.3, you can still happily write code as if it’s 2003.

Additionally, the java space is huge, so just wildly googling will probably not help you that much.

If I’m not mistaken, James SA Corey is an alias for two writers.

Point still stands though.

It was kinda a hoax. Not the problem itself, it did exist, but everything in 1999 was “y2k compliant”. Especially things that couldn’t be affected by the issue (like toasters and what have you).

It was not a hoax, but it was hoax adjacent.

I don’t get it. Can you explain please?

What happened with the electricity thing an self driving cars?
