LG: Sorry to hear the news.
Integers going negative at the 2billion mark implies the use of signed 32-bit integers. Why the programmers did that for a value that should only be countably positive is 1) sloppy or 2) they had something else in mind for the sign/top most bit. I'd vote for 1).
On the other hand, if there are already lots of 2 billion plus share bars, soon, there'll be lots of 4 billion plus share bars, and then, probably, TS software won't work at all.
I'm so tired of bad software being caused by poor management doing poor oversight and even worse investment decisions. Doing this technical stuff is hard enough without that 'help'.
So, whadda' ya' gonna' do?

in edit: changed 'days' to 'bars', and wanted to add 3) shortsighted "We'll never have a 2 billion plus share bar" ...
