Int you say? -17 it is. In Benjamin Button years.

Come to think of it, unsigned char is probably the best hardware data type for an age, if we assume nobody's going to cure aging completely.

User with this age already grew up as soon as you press submit

I can only assume this was the registration form for that Mr Beast video where he had 100 people in a room with one person of each age from 1 to 100.

Nah it was lame, some people had good strategy but it came down to crappy challenges and crappy people

Everyone got put into a cube and they just had to outlast the other people, while doing some challenges.

So you're typesetting your database results?

Seems like someone forgot to normalize the age dimension in their OLAP cube!
