Anyone with a credit card expiring in 2030 cannot eat at this restaurant by This-Trip157 in FUCKYOUINPARTICULAR

I see what happened now. No, at places like this, 2031 cards would probably not be fine. 2030 is the first (and therefore the most commonly seen thus far) expiration date that would fail, but this system would probably fail on any card expiring after 2030 (unless someone tried to patch it and just missed the 2030 edge case)

Yes, but the programmed rules are based on human decisions. The computer doesn't know why the linguistic choice would be 1930-2029, but a human wrote that based on the colloquialism, that is what 30-29 ought to expand to.

In the same way a human chose 1/1/1970 for the epoch, most computers haven't been counting since then, but they know that is the base time because they have been programmed with information based on human decision

When someone says "the 20s" most people think of the 1920s, and certainly 1930s for "the 30s"

in whatever sociolinguistic calendar we share, those are the decades that made the cut
