            https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/coreutils.git/tree/src/wc.c#n507

            The word count variable is an intmax_t, so assuming ISO C (it’s GNU so probably not but whatever) it has to be at least C99 and thus support at least 64 bit long long.

            Looking forward to the nine quintillion word LW posts. Wonder if I should submit a patch to make wc(1) use GMP for future proofing purposes…

Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

[Especially don’t debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]
