octillions

Likely those developers in places like Zimbabwe would be thinking it's in octillions anyway.

That would be octillions of light-years...

But if you do that, you only get a tiny fraction of a watt out of it, and it's uselessly inefficient; even if you made trillions of these little black holes, the energy payback time of the project is measured in octillions of years if you're feeding useful photons into them.

That question was unresolved for me until recently, when I revisited the question and thought that at some point you could start naming them a, aa, aaa, aaaa, etc instead of seventen hexadecillions five hundred and sixty octillions...

Octillions, trillions, billions, and a dot in my screen.

This attitude that we have to design processes as if there are five hundred quintillion octillions of googolplexes of novemdecillions of cheating lying "fake coders" for every one qualified person is not rooted in reality, nor is the level of paranoia you're displaying.
