Everyone arguing about date formats, yet no one yelling about a dozen being an outdated measurement because it's not base 10.
Base twelve gang
All you guys do is complain about how much the price of 10 eggs has gone up.
Itās shrinkflation!! 10 eggs for the price of 12!
Oh no, a dozen eggs used to be ā¬ 1,09 here, about 9 cent per egg. Now ten eggs are ā¬ 2,89, about 29 cent per egg. The world isn't fair.
12 is a far superior number to 10. It is sacrilege that we started using 10 instead of 12.
People already have problems comprehending orders of magnitude with base 10. At base 12 things would only be worse.
If anything we should go binary to better understand the difference between a billion and a million. š„ø
I really don't think the problem with people not understanding large numbers has anything to do with the base. It's just lots of people not having a good maths education.
12 is so much more divisible
United we stand, though.
The future is now old man! Ditch your antiquated base 10 numbering system and embrace the future of hexadecimal!
Base 64 rules!
A bakers dozen reasons why
Base thirteen gang just wants to see the world burn.
I only go by bakers dozen
