Re: HP-UX in the year 2054?
My kids will probably be migrant/expat workers in India, China, Brazil or Russia (aka the BRIC bloc) - trying to earn a living.
BPO Operations in the United States has started to set foot. As Call centers in India become more expensive, most global companies have shifted BPOs to the United States - whose population would have reached 800 million by 2050 and where the cost of operations have gone so dramatically competitive.
Meanwhile, I am in my 80's and about to pay off my mortgage.

Re: HP-UX in the year 2054?
The world has survived the 2038 system disaster, but "The Cloud" has collapsed, leaving the world so paranoid about it's data and resources that the new buzzword in "The Safe Room".
Yes, we have gone full circle again in the technology, so security is again restored by de-centralizing resources. Hence the crazed need for HPUX servers (even old ones), by everyone, which explains Rufus' hardware configuration.
And as Alzy so correctly points out the USA is deperate to regain it's position in the IT world that it is now seeking old and aged UNIX Admin's with scripting skills who can handle the command line. People who love Posix and Korn and yes...P-e-r-l.
So, suddenly retired oft forgotten UNIX Admin's are in the drivers seat and commanding salaries they always deserved.
Life is good....HPUX Rules! Root Rocks!
Teehee,
Rita

Re: HP-UX in the year 2054?
I am upset, by 2038 I will have burned through all my retirement savings. Didn't all the Cobol jockys get bonus checks for Y2K? That was supposed to be our turn ;-)

Re: HP-UX in the year 2054?
You'll "tweet" about the whole experience by sticking your hands to the cave wall, and use your mouth to spray a slurry of crushed stone, mud and spit in order to leave some amazing hand prints as a testament to your delicious meal. Two or three others (the sum total remnants of human civilization) stop by to have a look at your beautiful handiwork. Everyone smiles through their remaining couple of teeth in amazement until they get tired from lack of adequate oxygen, and go to sleep...
In several million years, a sentient being, descended from roaches, looks at the wall and wonders why such an apparent lower life form would feel the need to hold obvious religious ceremonies in honor of an assumed "appendage-and-mud god". Another sentient being dismisses the whole thing as a happen stance of natural caustic atmospheric erosion of a bygone era which just somehow resembles something a non-insect could put on a wall. But, of course, everyone knows better than this, as no being other than insects have ever had enough brain power to perform such a wilful act of self-determination.
Years later, a group of the species are watching a holographic presentation on the wall, as they renew their discussion of possible natural evolution of the species. A few of the class members secretly blaarghch their thoughts about the concept that they may be descendants of the beings that made the marks on the wall. Through mental telepathy onto the popular new UNEEDATHORAX(R) bacterial data transference storage system(c) (quark based), for all of their friends to contemplate later on that night while their communal hive mother isn't paying attention(lots of babies coming). The collective thought snickers from the group to let all involved how ridiculous the concern of their elders about the ugly stone, mud and spit on a wall really is, as they absent mindedly smash minuscule humanoid looking "ants" on the space-walks with the hard, sharpened, pointed brains on their ends of their appendages. Snarrghk!!!

Re: HP-UX in the year 2054?
Fix is a little to strong a word. We will have an equivalent to a time64_t solution, but programmers will have to change any database or file sources.
