Oops, need x: instead of <.

   |. 281474976710656&|@*/\.x:1+2*i.-2^24

Sorry about that, was using <. earlier to test whether that fixed the
overflow issue (it does not), and grabbed that instance for this
variant.

This is bulkier, though, just like your */\ version:

    timespacex'|. 281474976710656&|@*/\.x:1+2*i.-2^12'
0.005394 2.72333e6
    datatype |. 281474976710656&|@*/\.x:1+2*i.-2^12
extended

And if I could think of an efficient way of demoting the result type
to integer, I think I could use that reduce some of the bulk.

Sadly, though, the obvious approach doesn't do it:

    timespacex'|. 281474976710656&|@*/\.&.x:1+2*i.-2^12'
0.004687 2.65882e6

Still... why not break this into pieces?

Something like (warning, untested code):

genseries=:3 :0
  r=. ''
  n=.1
  for. i.2^6 do.
    r=. r,|. 281474976710656&|@*/\.&.x:n+2*i.-2^18
    n=. {:r
  end.
  r
)

Thanks,
