    I was born that year and I’m curious what others were doing around that time.

    Eating mushrooms with the homies in the woods instead of going to prom. Zero regrets, would do it again.

      I was sailing the North Atlantic and being black out drunk while ashore. I think I had a couple port visits in the states, but mostly just patrols of Canadian waters

        Frolicking around in the evenings while all the other neighborhood kids looked on in annoyance.

            Oh man, probably deep into World of Warcraft, absolutely “no-lifing” it. Dropping in and out of community college. Not many friends. Living on my own for the first time. Not taking care of myself.

                By April of 2007 I had completely burned myself out working for my third tech startup in the Boston area. By the end of April I was in New Zealand followed by Australia on a month+ long solo trip to unwind and recover from the burnout.

                  ETL ERP via SQL

                  To approve a corporate merger the Federal Trade Commission required us to sell off a division to prevent having a monopolistic market share. To avoid software licensing complexities and for business continuity, the purchaser was allowed to be umbrellaed under our existing software license and remained hosted on our servers for two years. Environment was CA-PRMS Enterprise Resource Planning on an IBM I-series.
                  Created a new instance, updated key values while porting master files and transaction history data into the new instance. Scrubbed same data from old instance. Set security to prevent cross access. Hard due date or merger would be cancelled. Federal auditors inspected through process. Trickiest was incomplete transactions like a partially complete work order, AR unapplied cash or AP/PO partial match in receiving. Some of the most challenging fun I had in 30 years of IT

                          Yes, there was a sweet spot in the graphics updates right before they enshittified the whole game.

                                  I was taking fuck tonnes of party drugs at psytrance squat raves in abandoned mansions or under random motorway overpasses and occasionally remembering to go to college on weekdays. London was a really fun place to be a teenager back then.

                                      Dude, OP was asking about 2007, not 1707...

                                      But, in earnest now, what was the background to this?
