I didn't join until many years later, and only became active last year, so I was unaware of this.

I hope they used an unsigned word to track the count, and no signed one.

They did, but it was a uint16_t, so we're nearing the event horizon...

I think they use 32bit integers: certainly the notifications count doesn't fit in 16 bits, mine is standing at 88,266 unread messages.

In preparation for your rep point balance rolling over at 232 , all numerical integer types have been replaced with BigInt.

That will at least give the hamsters plenty of time to prepare!

I have created so many tips I'd probably bump the scale a little myself.

Or you could go to the search page Search
and you would see something like "63,412 Results" just above the Filters on the top left.

That would have been easier, yes ...

I believe round numbers are milestones to be celebrated, so a party is in order when we reach the 65,536 th article.

Didn't know that @chris-maunder has an actual work... But got this notification:

If I remember correctly it is another site that he created.

I remember that he tried to recruit some of us to write articles there - for a change for money - but it turned out to be problematic (for me at least - tax related), but didn't know that he is the brains behind it...

Not only for you, and not only in that project...
Extra International payments for people that already have a job in at home country is a nightmare for most of us and in some extreme cases not even allowed...

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

A real job? Me? That's my true nightmare scenario.
We started ContentLab.io a couple of years ago (and seriously: 2 years already??) and we've grown to well over a hundred authors and editors. So yes, I guess it's starting to be a real job.
The team (Brigitta, Ryan, Terry and our awesome salesteam) do the real work. I just sit in meetings and make unreasonable demands on the team to ensure our clients are always happy.
cheers

No, no - that's OK.
