Everyone was scared 😂 The fear of Y2K, also known as the “millennium bug,” was a global panic rooted in the concern that computers would fail when the year transitioned from 1999 to 2000. This anxiety existed because early programmers often used two-digit codes for years to save memory, leading many to believe that systems would misinterpret “00” as 1900 and trigger catastrophic failures in banking, power grids, and infrastructure. #1999 #90s #millennials #y2k #2000
