    Confused non-social abutting chief information officer assigned to compose provisional circumlocutions comprising one of the longest words in the English language. ((0b11 << 0b100) - 0b11) This should be very easy. Don't cheat, the word length is encoded because there is a very small pool of words with that letter length. Someone is bound to google it and find it immediately. Because the puzzle is so easy... I am only accepting a complete answer including all operators/indicators. There is a secondary bonus puzzle embedded inside the overall primary puzzle with a hint of tū-te-ngaehe but I highly doubt anyone will solve the complex second layer. The secondary puzzle is not necessary. P.S. I checked the dictionary of @Richard-MacCutchan through the kitchen window to make sure it was listed there.

        Yes, I used the British spelling just for you Richard. The American spelling swaps the hard C with the letter K[^] on the root word.

            Are you referring to someone who knows the cost of anything and the worth of nothing? :)

                    Cryptic Crossword Winner! Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis [^] was invented on February 23, 1935 by Everett M. Smith and added to the English dictionary a few years later. I guess you are up Monday. Make sure that you use one of the words from Richard MacCutchan's dictionary

                      What's the story with Tūtengaehe? I thought maybe you were looking for one of his many other names. But there are too many non-Maori letters, so it must be something else.

                        Well, The pinnacle of puzzle setting is to embed double puzzles into a single set. It's not always easy and takes quite a bit of thought. I've seen @Tim-Deveaux do it a few times... although I think it may be unintentional and caused by his short clues.
