About a decade ago I was involved in the development of an embedded product for industrial use cases. The kind of stuff you install once and use for 20-40 years. The library we used for displaying the time breaks around 2036 (so a bit ahead of y2k38). But the person responsible would long be in retirement by then and the issue doesn't impact critical functions, so it was decided not to do anything about it. This version of the product is still sold today. I doubt this story is uncommon. |
