More important is the scale. On a scale of 10 means it doesn’t matter in what base XD

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

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.

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)

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
