hopefully by then it'll all be sorted by whatever fix they implemented before 2038.
That's easy. The 2038 problem is fixed by using 64-bit processors running 64-bit applications. Just about everything built in the last 15 years has already got the fix
Using that fix, the problem doesn't come up again for about 300 billion years
