I use both (plus some archaic measures too), interchangeably on a daily basis, I like both, if I had to choose I'd go for Imperial (and I mean British) just cos it confuses a lot of people. What's your reason?
base 12 fan here. more precision for almost every type of calculation humans need to do regularly. maybe i could be persuaded to say base 60 is better, like the old babylonian math but 2 and 3 as the base factors gets you most of the way. base 60 makes it track with the resonances of base 10 as well, which is 2 and 5, but i've tinkered with this and ternary math is provably more efficient also for cryptography especially when using bethe lattices

i have a policy of not aligning with groups. i am an army of one, the purest form of autistic refusal there is
…also for what it’s worth I jus perused ur profile and realized ud ackshully dumbed it down for us😳🤯😂 …we in the ⭕️ appreciate the effort🫡 image
the whole world uses them. but the base 5 convention comes from the romans, not the arabs. i think the biggest distinction is that the arabs discovered zero
Yeah, but base 12 is cooler using a duodecimal system than a decimal system like the arabic numerals
agreed. we have words for them, you even see it with languages like german. just no symbol. nul ein zwei drie vier funf sechs sieben acht neun zehn elf
