There's 10 types of people, those who understood binary ...
Those that understood ternary...
Those that understood quarternary...
.......
We count 1 to 10 like everyone else!
Every base is base 10 in its own base.
Really makes you thinks.
Based.
And those that beep boop

Those that understand cinary Those that understand dinary Those that understand einary Those that understand finary Those that understand ginary Those that understand hinary Those that understand iinary Those that understand jinary Those that understand kinary
Wait a second but you just used null to represent people who don't understand binary... So that leaves 1 to represent something else TELL ME THE OTHER KIND OF PERSON!!!!
They're just playing it safe. Extrapolating from a small dataset is irresponsible
You would hope, but far too many people fail to even understand the shape of the hole in their knowledge, so they wouldn't even recognize what should go in that blank spot...
Then you get billions of people believing there's a magical sky daddy that will take care of us no matter what, and those words about us being good stewards of the earth is totally just about like, not pooping on the road! Definitely not about wanton resource extraction and environmental exploitation and distruction...
All those lessons about how to be a good ruler are just describing that sky daddy! They're definitely not direct and allegorical stories trying to teach what virtues to look for in leaders and which ones deserve to be dethroned... God is definitely real literally and not just allegory for leaders that are glorified, it's definitely not about humans treating other humans with respect, but about Sky Daddy playing with his toys!
Oh my god you people are so insufferable
So... you're too stupid to understand how knowledge works? You're too dense to understand the concept of the "known unknown" vs the "unknown unknown"?
You ignorant morons are insufferable to me.
Case in point. I never mentioned any of those things
You didn't say much at all, just insults. It is very much you failing to communicate anything except contempt, so ofc I have to assume.
You are the problem you complain about, dumbass,
I never intended to communicate anything except contempt.
"... and horses. Yes, horse people. You thought you could extrapolate from a single data point? Don't be ridiculous."
There are two types of people in the world:
- Those who divide the world into two types of people
- Those who do not divide the world into two types of people
reminds me of this classic:
there's essentially only two types of worldviews in the world: dualistic and non-dualistic worldviews
There are two types of absolutists in the world.
- Only the Sith deal in absolutes
There are three types of people in the world:
- Those who can count
- Those who cant
The ones who think they can, and get it wrong, helped put Trump in office.
There's two major sources of confusion in IT:
- caching
- giving variables names
- off-by-one errors
There js also the variant
- Asynch...
- Variable Names
- Off by one errors...ronity
That reminds me of: Two threads a bar walk into.
And those who can extrapolate from complete data, got it.
"Congratulations! You're both very special."
Bonus: it's a statistics class.
So one asked the question, and then someone else asked the same question?
It's more common than you'd think
Then that means there's 3 types of people
Hmm expecting people to extrapolate from incomplete date is how you end up with responses like "I don't care who the second group is, their mysterious ways must be wiped from the earth."
/s
Not sure why you added the /s when this line of thinking is quickly becoming the primary line of thinking.
Damn, is your professor Thor?

...and they thought they were being clever
Two types of people. Those who have lost data, those who will.
