Numerical bases Memes

The numerical identity crisis is real! Base 10 (decimal) is where both mathematicians and computer scientists feel at home - just normal humans doing normal math things. But watch what happens when we switch systems! Base 2 (binary) reveals the true divide: mathematicians are having an existential breakdown with all those 1s and 0s, while computer scientists are smugly comfortable - it's literally their native language. Then comes Base 16 (hexadecimal) where mathematicians descend into complete numerical horror at dealing with letters as numbers, while computer scientists just put on their cool glasses and get to work. Nothing says "I understand memory addresses" like casually throwing around values like 0xDEADBEEF without breaking a sweat.

The mathematical burn here is absolutely savage! The orange character counts 10 rocks in decimal (base 10), while the astronaut smugly assumes they're using base 4 (where "10" would represent 4 in decimal). But the orange character flips the script with "I use base 10. What is base 4?" - brilliantly pointing out that every numbering system is "base 10" in its own language! In base 4, "10" means "four," but they'd still call it "base 10" because that's how you write the base's value in that base . It's a mind-bending mathematical truth that makes mathematicians giggle uncontrollably at parties.
