It's called Year 2038 problem, when you need a 64-bit integer to store
date and time. Don't worry too much about it!

BTW, Y2K problem back then didn't create any major chaos as.


That was known with the year 2000 problem. At least I will be dead for
that one ! or 91 years old for which I will not care.
