Apparently , the activity changes every 1210000 units of the UNIX timestamp.
This equates to 14 days , 6 minutes , 40 seconds.
This means , after 3026 2 week periods , you would expect to gain 42364 activity.
But no , you would get only 42350 activity.
TLDR; Every 116 years you will lose out on 14 activity. Sad right ?

Q : How is activity calculated ?
The activity number is determined in this way:
time = number of two-week periods in which you've
posted since your registration
activity = min(time * 14, posts)
Q : Help ! My activity (or rank) has not activated yet , even though I have sufficient posts and have posted in sufficient time periods !Found this pretty helpful, thanks.
Just wondering why isn't it exactly 2 weeks, but something like 10 minutes more?
