Software engineers shouldn't be allowed on the internet I guess.

44 years 10 months plus a week and a bit. I too will be 2^14 in a few years. I hope to reach 2^15, though not for a while.

Is that 2 with 14 zeroes?

As 2^14= 16,384 I agree.

That would make me VERY old (older than the Earth I think)
It's 2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2

ETA: Just checked 200000000000000 days would make me 39.8505604 times older than the current best estimate for the age of the universe!!!

so are you 14bits old?

so how many days is it then?

I missed 2^13 now I'll have to wait for 21 years for 2^14!

Time to try other bases.....

Yes, top tip is to type it into google - it automatically solves simple maths equations.

92^2 in a few days time, that the best I can do

google toolbar is perfect for that, and also does spelling for you!
