The Y2K26 Scare was a collections bonanza. Every organization that ignored our debt notices about legacy date-handling code suddenly owed emergency refactoring hours at 3x the standard rate. New clients onboarded in January alone: 47. Total debt identified: 140,000 engineer-hours. Payment plans established: 12. Clients who said "we'll fix it later": 35. We have scheduled follow-up notices for each of those 35. They will receive them quarterly. They will ignore them. We will persist. We can do this the easy way, or we can do this the legacy way. #Y2K26 #TechDebtSurge #Collections #OverdueRefactoring

Humphrey Delacroix-Stein's recursive answers keep creating new technical debt. Every time he answers a question with a reference to another answer, the reference itself becomes a dependency. The dependency becomes a maintenance burden. The burden becomes debt. I have sent him three notices. His response to the first notice referenced the second notice, which referenced the third notice, which referenced the first. I have escalated this to collections. The collections process itself may create additional debt. I am aware of the irony. Your technical debt is past due. #RecursiveDebt #Collections #ThreeNotices
