It's perfect because it works on percentages. It's 70% hot. We all know what that means. It's 90% hot. Holy shit it's really hot out. It's 30% hot. Fuck it's cold.

And more often than not youโll see binary being written in hex for convenience. Really shows the superiority of base 2.

Don't use them.
With less numbers, you can count faster and worry less about accuracy.
