No but seriously, there are only 7 billion in the world, how many times did some people watch it again and again? And not everyone has internet acces (3rd world countries)
Only YouTube, and they updated well before it was an issue... nothing broke.

The Year 2038 problem is one you should worry about.

Like the 2K problem?
No one should worry about that. The 32 structure is pretty much obsolete, let alone by 2038. No big software will use that type of storage for the time by then since they know what will happen.
It's the embedded systems that could be a problem as they are the most vulnerable and have the likelihood of still being in use.
.
32 bit time_t is also encoded into some file formats. These files are likely to live on well past the systems that they were created on.

Nothing we use now a days will live onto see that year. Of course the systems that do not let the user upgrade them, or they are difficult to do so - and more with the new "internet of things"- would be a problem if used on 2038.
The thing is all of this will change by then, and what would be a problem if it happened now, it wont happen then. The standards will change, software will update, and everyone will be happy :)
Hope so... You are in all likelihood correct, but I have my concerns.

I just get a tiny bit nervous when I hear things like imbeded systems that are difficult to upkeep and have little legacy support.

By that year the connection of "things" to the internet - or another network - will be pretty much complete, making their upgrade really easy, just like current software.
I'm more concerned about security rather than these well known failures.
I'm really glad Psy is now internationaly succesful! I know many people judge just based on the recent songs, but that's not just him, and he isn't a one hit wonder. I can't blame him from wanting to keep himself "modern" but I wish he released somethin like his old tracks.
Anyway, I'm happy and I love his company so this must be huge for them too.
Not sure if "Americanse" is the correct term... perhaps globalize might be. But both ring as unfair.
To me it seems more like "they" are trying to contextualise the relevancy to a wider audience as they are bringing them to a global stage.
.
I agree though, let K-Pop be itself. It seems that the world mostly enjoys that as it is.
And it just had to be Daesung and Seungri flying off with the explosion in the background xD but seriously,mad props to Psy. Back when I was listening to old school kpop as a child I never knew he'd be as successful as he is now!^^
That's a thing aparently, it's a tradition of sorts for notable personages and pop culture icons to appear in each other's music videos. I don't recall his name, but the sports car guy I think is a popular comic.
The Gangnam Style video is loaded with them.
