I wanted to take a look at what my graph would look like in 2039. Looks like beeminder isn’t seeing the big picture.

December 2037 works, so I assume something somewhere uses 32 bit?

It says it pings the team. Sorry about that 🙂 Clearly not an important problem… yet. I sure hope you’re around in 60 years because my life is going to become a mess the second beeminder goes down. 😛

Yep, I think 2038-01-17 is the max and I believe it’s intended. At least that’s what any later date reverts to in the road builder. 🙂
