All bases are base 10
Not base 1.
I'm only interested in 3rd base currently.
Based sex-pest
So base 4?
All bases are belong to us
More important is the scale. On a scale of 10 means it doesn’t matter in what base XD
So then this would mean a 1 in binary is a decimal 5?
Depends if the scale runs from 1 to 10 it would be equivalent to a decimal 1, interpretation would be binary: 10 pretty 1 not pretty
Not zero-indexing people's attractiveness SMH. /s
On a scale of 10, 10 in Base 2 would be 2.
This implies that they are actually "speaking" in text, because over actual speech 10 said in base 10 would be "ten" and 10 said in base 2 would be "one zero", i.e. not ambiguous at all.
There's no rule saying that you can't pronounce 10 in binary as ten.
thank you for giving me a great torture idea for all my IT adjacent friends, from now on i'll be pronouncing all binary as if it were one number (up until i can't be bothered anymore)
"My subnet mask is set to eleven million, one hundred eleven thousand, one hundred eleven dot eleven million, one hundred eleven thousand, one hundred eleven dot eleven million, one hundred eleven thousand, one hundred eleven dot zero"
Should've just said "True".
Hexadecimal 😏
Babe, you are an F.
Babe, on a scale of 0x1 to 0x10, I give you a solid A+.
A+? Would that just be B or does it round down
It overflows and goes back to 0x00
It can be whatever you like
On a 100, right?
Maybe he meant IO. She is his input/output.
All your base are belong to us
hexadecimal notation wins again
But on a binary scale this would translate to 11 base 10.
Wut?
10 binary = 2 decimal
10 decimal = 1010 binary
Where are we getting 11?
10 is the base (2) overflowed by 1 (zero indexed) which kind of translates to 10+1 base 10 (1 indexed). I didn't really mean in in mathematical but rather nonsensical way. I just wanted to pull 11/10
