Here’s one example of this system in use https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icelandic_name

Edit - I realize I probably misunderstood the question. But as said in another comment, it’s just a swap if we’re not talking about patronymic/matronymic naming systems.

It’s getting dark

Fortunately I will not be involved. Hopefully I can make something from 2038 though.

I’ve already seen reimplementation of 2 digit dates here and there.

Because of months of preparation. I know, I was doing it.

Yeah that’s a different shitshow but agreed it is likely to be worse - like y2k the effects are smeared out before and after the date.

Yeah who knows if our computers are sticks by either date

2100 not a leap year (divisible by 100). 2400 is a leap year (divisible by 400). Developing for dates is a minefield.

2100 and 2400 will be a shitshow

Thanks. Sorry for paywall, the article was readable linked from a search as is often the way. Archive.today will open it.

The economic codependency is surprising to some but logical I suppose.

It took me less than a minute. I don’t know about Ukraine’s happiness, I suppose someone else could look that up.

I would send “Stand on Zanzibar” which was published before I was born and still predicted much of the past few decades

I love my N900 and N9 but by the time they were released Android already had unstoppable momentum. It’s all about software developers’ uptake of the platform. Maemo didn’t have it, WP had barely more, but neither was enough to compete. I think Nokia could have been the peer of Samsung as an Android OEM. Their logistics was arguably better even though they didn’t have the vertical integration of Samsung.

Edit: if they’d not had the risk-averse management a few years earlier the N770 could have developed into a competitive smartphone platform… But managers were fixated on candybar phones and endless variations on feature phones instead of reaching for their future.
