Number of people on the world.

There are 8.33 billion people living on the world.

Number of bacteria on the world.

There are around an estimated 5 nonillion (5 × 10³⁰) total bacteria living on Earth.

Modern scientific estimates show that bacteria and human cells in a standard adult body are in a near 1:1 ratio (approximately 38 trillion bacteria to 30 trillion human cells).

damn using the word really cleared things up

Must be a rather messy word for the total bacteria in the universe.

anyway we know that Tau.Neutrino you are easygoing enough to not have taken it personally and even if it seemed targeted the skin is tough enough to glance it off

however we apologise for the seeming slur as it was a quote-reply when our actual target was the wider practice of naming larger numbers, which tends to lend little technical value but serves to emphasise or exaggerate size

(similarly as recently brought up, unit prefixes, which we suppose have the same etymologic roots)

sooner or later we’re going to poison yousall with proper logarithm prefixes so it’s going to become shit like “the half life of carbon-14 is 0.18 d12s” and similarly “GTA6 will require 212 b30bytes of storage”, pending further reviews / revisions)
