Computers were not designed to roll over the year.

I get that, but I would assume that this only applied to a few old systems? Didn't programmers in the 80s want to make sure that their code would last for more than 20 years? And people knew Y2K would be a problem so they had plenty of time to fix the issues right?

as a gen Z I still don't get why Y2K was such a big deal

i get that these people need more help than just being convinced not to do it, but in that moment isn't talking them out of it the right thing to do?
