Breaking news! New 2023 studies find that Y2K did little to negatively impact technology.

Bad example.

In some cases, a LOT of shit was fixed up in a massive crunch to ensure it wouldn't fall over. Like shit-in-space kinda stuff as well as stuff that makes sure you have heat and light and hot clean water.

It was a massive effort for some orgs and, grace of God and hard work, you never noticed.

That's very true. I was struggling to think of a comparably equally obvious problem that isn't worth mentioning every few months with a new "study".

I was going to say climate change, but that is worth mentioning and studying as much as possible, even though it's been known exactly what's happening and why we're the ones driving it to happen for literally longer than anyone living person today.
