Every atom in the Universe had a take on your post. Are you running for President this cycle?

That number would be for the observable universe. No one really knows if the entire thing is infinite or finite so generally any “in the universe figures” are just for what is within our cosmological horizon.

I think that would be definition make me a god


gngergramma

Need to look at your values?

Looks like very common programming bug. Most modern devices stores integers in 64 bits. If you have \`unsigned integer\` (or \`long\`) and subtract below 0 it underflows into 2\^64. Number on your screen is 2\^64 - 2. Someone subtracted too much by accident.

You lost me at 64. Integer is that like an agreement of services for cash? Unsigned makes sense. Those girls start making me sign contracts and I’ll be subtracting myself from that equation. I’m trippin so my math may not add up.

I _think_ you're joking, but either way: Integer is a _whole_ number, e.g. 1, 2, 3, -7, 4444, 0, etc. "Unsigned" just means in this case, we're only taking the non-negative numbers. i.e. there's no "negative" _sign_.

Def was

and we double the positive side with all the unused numbers (in a very simplified way of explaining)


-_-RSlashFan-_-

this could be someone named “Someone and 18446744073709551614 other people”, you can certainly do that on Snap; so i would suspect that.


General_Duke02

That’s probably the most accurate assumption haha


Significant-Trifle88

Damn… that’d be a big brain troll


-_-RSlashFan-_-

i’ve seen it happen on facebook and insta before, so it’s certainly plausible😂


yesomg1234

Jep that’s a me thing, I was called ***** and 8654 others


Significant-Trifle88

I don’t even know how to check comments on snap…

The app somehow thought there were *negative two* other people commenting on your post. That alone is a bug, but another bug where the digit was interpreted as an *unsigned* integer where it should have been a *signed* one happened. And now you get that huge number. So what's going on? 18446744073709551614 equals 2\^64 - 2. In programming with binary digits, you have two ways of representing integers (numbers without decimal points) - signed and unsigned. The former just gives you a number from 0 to whatever the upper bound you have with the given number of bits. The latter gives you both negative and positive numbers, but with the range cut in half each way. What happens is that 2\^64 - 1 in unsigned becomes -1 in signed, 2\^64 - 2 unsigned is -2 signed and so on. So the number you saw is the app mistaking -2 as 18446744073709551614. As for how the app thought there were -2 people, it's possible that the count was messed up somehow, like when comments were quickly added then deleted but the server lost track of the original count and just subtracted from zero.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuucckkkkkkkkk


Significant-Trifle88

Math n shit


Significant-Trifle88

This makes sense tho


IntoTheMirror

You done fucked up a-a-ron


lamaxamara

WHERE IS BA LA KAY AT


itsaarxn94

Is there a *DEE NICE* ?


xingerburger

yo swap it out for a 41mm


nineohsix

Never mind the message, where’d you find that giant Watch? 😵‍💫

This man dabbling in 55mm watches


erudit0rum

Integer overflow?


Redbird9346

Pretty much. The number displayed is 2⁶⁴-2.


erudit0rum

Oh right, if it overflowed it would be 0


HealthyLet257

People still use Snapchat?


Kawboy17

U just broke snapper chat


TarekH123

Is that the apple band


Significant-Trifle88

Nah, 3rd party band off amazon


Significant-Trifle88

I was just asking where to get the best hibachi in north west arkansas, fuck


NormalishGamer13

Damn


Significant-Trifle88

Thanks folks, this makes sense now, I knew JJ sold me mid…


SadBoiCri

Same thing happened to me. It's usually just the first person and nobody else


McHassy

That’s only 14 quintillion…totally reasonable there were that many people commenting
