hello, truly, the code can use an optimization, that's why I presented it as an proposition or rather idea. E.g. the digits could be byte. However, the idea is no joke at all. Point was to offer complete software solution, dependable only on hardware. But I am open to any feedback.

>the idea is no joke

It's not? But it's predicated on the idea that human life hundreds of billions of years from now will be more or less the same as it is now, to the extent that they'll even still be using the same APIs and OSs. It's difficult to believe someone would posit that as anything other than a joke.

I hear your point. We truly don't know what will future bring, even less the future of year 292 billion. But again, I am proposing the software complete solution - even without current use case.

Next time, just say it was a joke.
