I witnessed my first y38 bug a couple weeks ago - just as a matter of someone doing forecasting in a system with an incorrect casting.

At least, the good part is that people will get "hunches" about y38, just like you start getting "hunches" about bugs related to locales, time zones, character encodings, currency roundings, etc...

I don't know if there are courses, books, etc... about all those matters that are definitely non "computer sciency", but occupy so much of our engineering time ?
