They should store karma points as floats, so it won't overflow, it'll just loose precision.

Assuming karma is added and removed one at a time, there's a number that's not particularly large where you can't add any more.

HN runs on Lisps that don't lose precision, just slow down.

arc is written in mzscheme and/or racket, and not C. It has infinite integer precision.
