.vhyrro | so any mathematical operation is simple | 20:03:50 |
purewater | That makes more sense than base 10 | 20:03:58 |
.vhyrro | it really does | 20:04:09 |
.vhyrro | base 10 is kinda stupid fwiw | 20:04:19 |
.vhyrro | even base 12 makes more sense. base 60 is super sick tho | 20:04:29 |
purewater | Not being base 12 was the greatest mistake humans made besides making the electron have negative charge by convention | 20:04:39 |
.vhyrro | lol facts | 20:04:48 |
.vhyrro | I mean there were civilizations that used base 12 | 20:04:57 |
.vhyrro | and, lo and behold, instead of counting on their fingers they would count with their knuckles | 20:05:08 |
.vhyrro | problem immediately solved, humanity improved | 20:05:18 |
purewater | Me when you don't use your fingers to count binary | 20:05:30 |
purewater | Learning I could do that was the greatest life skill ever | 20:06:14 |
.vhyrro | hold on so 60 is cleanly divisible by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15 ... | 20:06:51 |
.vhyrro | holy schmoly | 20:07:03 |
.vhyrro | also 20, 30 | 20:07:14 |
purewater | Yes | 20:07:26 |
.vhyrro | no wonder they were better at maths than we are smh | 20:07:36 |
purewater | 12 actually makes more sense bc it's divisible by all the numbers between 1 and 6 | 20:07:44 |
.vhyrro | also true | 20:07:58 |

sevoris | this sounds like RDF but with even worse levels of high-level abstraction possible and I love-hate it already | 15:11:58 |
| illumiko changed their display name from _iyan0903 to illumiko. | 18:21:56 |
ronkdar | I'm here for dozenal counting. | 19:34:53 |
ronkdar | As an American woodworker, I would gladly switch to metric for that if it was base 12 instead of 10. | 19:35:33 |
purewater | | 20:08:41 |
sevoris | query needs to match ten triples
"Wow, what does that do."
"Find a single entity named Dave."
"…"
"Hey why are you brandishing a kni-" | 20:12:26 |
