The Y2K Bug
🤯 The Y2K bug, also known as the Millennium Bug, was a computer programming problem that arose from the practice of abbreviating four-digit years as two digits. This meant that when the year 2000 arrived, computers would read it as 1900, causing potential chaos in systems that relied on accurate date calculations. 🤯

😱 As the year 2000 approached, fear and uncertainty gripped people around the world. Governments, businesses, and individuals scrambled to update their software and systems to prevent the impending disaster. 😱 Panic spread like wildfire, with doomsday predictions and apocalyptic scenarios dominating the headlines.
