I’m asking about within the software you use. I am aware of the calendar changes.

And I’m also aware that George Washington was born before the Calendar Act 1750, and therefore on February 11, 1731. He celebrated his first new year 42 days later.

I programmed Cobol for 33 years + college. That all depends on the date format in the PICTURE clause. I was also deep into the 1998 programming renovation for Y2K.

Leap year occurs every 4 years except 3 times every 400 years on a century year. So on 2100, 2200 and 2300, there will not be leap years. A Microsoft program called Excel did not take this into account for years 1700, 1800 or 1900. This is what this is about. Likely, no one here discussing it will be alive when it next occurs.

True. As I mentioned, I was involved in Y2K at my previous job and my current job after I arrived (July 1998). Part of the process for date handling was allowing for February 29th in years divisible by 4. As you said, this would not be the case in the year 2100, but of course, no one currently working in my job will be alive then, so, not our problem. Obviously, there will be new software in place by then that should account for this, in fact, the process has already started to transition from mainframe (using COBOL!!) to more web-based software using SQL among other things. Fortunately, I should be retired by the time the mainframe is completely gone.

My point then, as now, is that if you were concerned it had spread to the US, you ought to be wearing a mask.

It seems to me you weren't that concerned on February 5th either.

It's not bullshit to be concerned about coronavirus, though I agree it's extremely unlikely to be a massive disaster. But there are going to be layoffs in the US pretty soon because manufacturers here can't get parts from their suppliers in China who have shut down.

Hmm. Pity the President of the United States didn't tell us about his concerns, and didn't order a massive gear-up of mask production. Maybe we wouldn't have had weeks in March where 50K additional NYC residents were contracting covid every day, leading a month later to 500 to 1000 deaths per day.

I didn’t know Governor Cuomo owned any nursing homes,
then again if he did...... I’m sure he followed the guidelines handed down by the CDC.
Yeah the CDC that federal agency that was following Donald Trumps directives.

Plenty of people thought otherwise, as evidenced by my posting from back then. Since when does Trump consider UN organizations to be the final authority on anything?

I can't get on this anti-Cuomo bandwagon. Red States wanted to put sick people in their old age homes much later in the game, a day after an Italian scientist said they must be crazy. Then there is criminal actions globally, with Canada sending in TROOPS to nursing homes, and spread the virus before they figured out to...der...quantine.
He's criminal for laying about contact tracing and isolation after the New Rochelle situation, where everyone said he vanished after that press conference and nothing happened.


Anyway, Your post is invalid. Months ago it was leaked that Obama depleted the entire federal mask reserve and that JOE BIDEN, and Obama never replenished it. Trump inherited an empty closet!

One year ago:

Today marks the one-year anniversary of the World Health Organization declaring “a public health emergency of international concern over the outbreak of novel coronavirus.” Since then the virus has killed more than 2.2 million people worldwide.

At the time WHO Director General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus made the declaration, there were fewer than 100 cases in the world, and this week we passed 102 million reported cases. More positive cases have been reported in the past two weeks than during the first six months of the pandemic, Tedros said at a press conference Friday.

“A year ago, I said the world had a window of opportunity to prevent widespread transmission of this new virus,” Tedros said. “Some countries heeded that call; some did not.”
