I started in FORTRAN when memory was NOT cheap, lol ...
A lot of people don't realized that's why only the last two digits were stored and that's why so much needed changing for Y2K.
I can remember being chastened by a manger in the 1990's for designing records and code using four position years. I told him times had changed. Memory was cheap.
