@sobaka But "it was a `u64` time ago" just sounds a bit weird.

@sobaka But if you write code for certain PIC processors, there *is* a `short long`! (It is 24 bits wide)

@sobaka I wish C99 had added very as a keyword, rather than the stupid long long trick. It would be so much more flexible. very very long x; very short y; very static int z; very const double PI = 3.14159...; very volatile bool boom; /* NO SMOKING */
