There are 110 kinds of people, really.
Those who understand binary…
Those that think this joke is funny…
Those that can extrapolate from incomplete data..
And for those who speak in hexadecimal, that’s only 1/2 of a single digit…
What?
4 digits in binary translate into one single digit in hexadecimal. Computer programmers know that hexadecimal (ie- machine code) is considered to be the “shorthand” of binary. Every computer processor is *hardwired* to translate between the two numbering systems…All other forms of programming language is only stepping closer to some form of human-based language.
another disco ball!
Will they need a juggler before this whole episode is through?
cool she learned how to make a soccer ball with bowlling baws and mirrors
It’s interesting that they all seem comfortable in poiting to the coffee shop without worrying about any customer seeing them. Business must be slow…
When it is a coffee shop and early morning, nobody will care. They all face the morning horror.
“A new hand touches the beacon!”
Gaaah! Kill it with fire!
speaks in binary?
LoL!!!
There are 10 types of people in the world…

# of possible answers is 2×3 or 110, but the # of permutations is 2^3 or 1000.

Before the creation of hexadecimal, computers used octal. One digit is 3 bits with a byte being 2-3 digits depending on the computer.
It was rather revolutionary to use letters to make a # that was a power of 2, was an even # of bits, and was larger than 8.
Modern computing would have been severely hampered without its creation. About like trying to do calculus with Roman numerals.
