Do you remember the biggest problem of the year 2000 when PC’s couldn’t display the correct date? That bug was called the Y2Kand it seems another bug like that is close.

Unix-like operating systems (i.e. most of the servers) have a limitation in how its are stocking the time, so 1 second after January 19th 2038 03:14:07 its will display Friday December 13th 1901, 13:20:45:52 hours.
