lol the British flag in the bottom right

I wouldn't trust statistics from relating to political issues that could get one punished in a country, people won't want to voice their true opinion in fear of punishment

Fun fact: the UK and a big chunk of Europe is far enough north that some days in summer never have proper nights, only twilight

Tf it just became 6PM as I saw this

Afaik it actually was, the UK wanted to move more financial calculations to computers and it was a lot easier to use a decimal currency for that

The system in the video allowed using and easily converting between any base that's a power of 2, like octal and yes, hexadecimal

The person here is using octal

I thought the finger counting system in that video wasn't particularly great (the solution for finger issues was a bad one, and four (I..) can easily be interpreted as a rude gesture) but the mental maths systems were cool

Nushell is great as a more powerful scripting language, but a proper language like python is useful too

Nushell has pipefail by default (plus an actual error system that integrates with status codes) and has actual number values, don't have these problems

Why is there a thin circular country around Europe?

That is true, but it should be branded as such, not as an international language, localized auxillary languages can be great, see Interslavic as an example

There are programming languages with fractions in them, afaik many varieties of Scheme have fractions

So can I turn someone into a shit-gun?

Alternatively you could see it as an angled g without the hook

There's a reason why "mama" or equivalent is such a common word for parents in completely unrelated languages

Reminder that esperanto is a bad IAL due to being based almost entirely on European languages, having a phoneme Inventory based off one of the languages Zamenhof happened to speak and having an agglutinative grammar that would be unfamiliar and difficult to many people

Haskell, where you can't even goto because it doesn't really work that way

wiki.nixos.org is pretty good

Yeah I'm currently living in the ocean rn chilling with the fish
