Yes it’s weird that no one was in it after they evacuated it due to the other building collapsing
Also weird how the uncontrolled fires led to a support column collapsing. Buildings just do that sometimes after severe damage

- Comment on What was the internet like before Y2K happened ? 1 month ago:
Some might crash. We absolutely fixed bugs like that.
There were lots and lots of failure modes.
- Comment on What was the internet like before Y2K happened ? 1 month ago:
Y2k “happened”, we just fixed 99.999% of the problems.
- Comment on What was the internet like before Y2K happened ? 1 month ago:
Computers were going to crash. The ones most at risk potentially didn’t talk to the Internet (but ran core systems, including core banking, airline, defense, etc systems). Fortunately - except very very few cases - they were all fixed before y2k. Since it was an incredibly well-publicized, fixable problem that everyone mobilized on.
The much bigger impact to the nascient Internet was the dot com bubble burst not too long after. Then what REALLY changed things was smartphones.
- Comment on What was the internet like before Y2K happened ? 1 month ago:
That really changed more in 2008+ with the invention of smartphones.
