It's probably a style/editing thing. Similar to how you use a person's full name and title the first time you refer to them (President Donald J. Trump) and then use a short form every time afterwards (Mr. Trump.)
So you probably say "the year 2000" the first time you mention a year standing alone, but can omit the word year for each other reference to a year.
Editorial style guides can be very, very specific on these things.
I appreciate the effort of remastering a music video (Sabotage) that was intentionally shot to mimic the style of the 1970s into HD.
Let's hope they do a Lucas-style Enhanced Edition of their video for Intergalactic next with CGI mechs.
And Adobe wonders why there's been a boom of third-party competitors to their design products, like Pixelmator, Affinity, etc. Reminder Adobe: There's no such thing as too big to fail.

I consider myself pretty tech-savvy and supportive of diversity and the only one I could think of was Melissa something who got fired or something from Yahoo? One from HP I think who was running for office. And another one who was with that bio firm that was apparently faking lab results or something. I can name plenty of female politicians however.
I don't know if that's my fault, the fault of the press/media/society for not making me more aware, or the industry for having practically no women in it.
Who is this guy, and why the heck are we supposed to listen to him?
Marco Arment is the former CTO of Tumblr, and was the original developer of Instapaper. He is the present developer of Overcast.
Can anybody with experience in programming unicode handling explain how a bug like this happens? It seems weird that a specific character could trigger a crash like this - what is being handled at such an individual level?
I'm going to fully support the results of this study, although I have yet to actually click on it.
I need to hurry up and film a zombie film in our local Sears before they close they place down completely.
Going in there is creepy as hell.
Our research shows that a 'basic,' functional office suite, which is streamlined with a 'simple' and uncluttered, uncomplicated UI, serves an incredible under-represented community.
Sounds like you should make one of those then.
