"Not Java"

Maybe throw in a recursive acronym in there somewhere?

CMIIW but didn't modems use to work like this? Like, put your phone receiver on top of the modem while it makes strange bleeping sounds?

But we're trying to convert the string "2016" to the integer 2016.

we want to turn the sequence [0x32, 0x30, 0x31, 0x36] (same on both architectures) into [0x00, 0x00, 0x07, 0xe0] in big endian or [0xe0, 0x07, 0x00, 0x00] in little endian. You can't simply perform the same procedure in both architectures since it'll result in a reversed sequence in one of them...

Which means less atmospheric carbon that we actually want to scrub gets captured by that 'next tree'...
It's still running. It's more of a theme park ride nowadays though than an actual transit system. Noisy, very energy inefficient and costly to maintain.

0x32303136 - 0x30303030 = 0x02000106

0x36313032 - 0x30303030 = 0x06010002

how is 0x02000106 the same as 0x06010002?

The subtraction isn't the issue, the cast is. the string "2016" is represented by the byte sequence [0x32, 0x30, 0x31, 0x36]. Casting this array to a uint32* in big endian gives you the integer 0x32303136 (or 842019126) while in little endian gives you the integer 0x36313032 (or 909193266).
Use 大きくて, not 多きくて

the former is 'big', the latter is 'many'
