Fuck it completely. The max z-index is 2147483647, as set by browser. There are no limits in the css spec itself.

mayanktg628yWhy on Earth people declare indexes like this when you can declare elements and use index() to get the element layer's index automatically.
Search sassy z-index. -
hawkes15728yOh god, I can relate... Had to file a change request this week, because some developer years ago thought
"what? You're gonna write z-index: 1001"?
Content of the change request: "Raise z-index of this class from 99999 to 1000000000 to overlay hard-coded 'z-index: 999999999'".
Fuck you, past developer! -
This is nothing like my colleague adding pointer-events: none; on the video banner's container then he spent 2 hours in despair trying to make the "read more" button work

It also reminds me of a back end developer I used to know that would use position: absolute; left:-99999px; to hide an HTML element XD
Hey frontend developers. If you do THIS:
z-index: 1000;
...expecting that it will ensure your div will be on top no matter what, I'm about to fuck your world up. Check this shit out:
z-index: 1001;
