    Base 16 is used all the time in computer science. The symbols for 9+ aren’t arcane or unrecognizable it’s 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F. It’s often written with an 0X in front to indicate hexadecimal or something like 'h for hex and 'd for decimal.

    Examples:

    • 'h7 = 'd7
    • 'hC = 'd12
    • 'hF = 'd15
    • 'h7CF = 'd(7 × 162) + (12 × 161) + (15 × 160) = 'd1792 + 'd192 + 'd15 = 'd1999


  • It’s a good thing that separation of corp and state is an inherent part of wage slavery.

    Could you imagine if you thought you were making an honest living parasitising some poor business owner with your wages only to find out you were actually living off the state the whole time?

    Embarrassing.
