Everyone I've ever met had an age which is only one number. Did your age use to be a 3D vector? And now it's... a quaternion?
Please don't rotate my age...
Oh man, I miss my past life when my age wasn't yet an octonian.
Say what base right now
2 makes sense
assuming "age" means years since birth and "numbers" means digits, op would be younger than 8
I mean it would have to be at least base 4 given the text.
Why not 9?
1000₂ = 8₁₀ has 4 digits in base 2
111₂ = 7₁₀ has 3 digits in base 2
Oof. When I first read this posts my mind was somehow reading “base 2” as “base 10” and I just couldn’t wrap my mind around what I was seeing. Sleep has made everything make sense
i mean base 10 is base 2 if you write the base as base 2
Let’s just say that’s what I was thinking
I read it as days, so 2.73 years. Or months, 83.33 years.
That thing where some mothers say "oh he/she's X days/months old" for kids that are way beyond where that's relevant.
Oh interesting take. The unit is different but still base 10. That would certainly be the more normal way to think about it...
Life took a dark turn after 999
I think they're so old that humans weren't around when they were born
Guys we found the vampire
You a turtle?
Like 100?
They said 3 numbers, not 3 digits. So, I am assuming 7, 28 and 36.
Or 627, whichever suits you.
420 is the highest age.
No. The higghest age is 255, beacuse there is age overflow and human turn into being 0 age.
... in weeks?
So, it stopped being sweet at 19 years?
What?
You mean 1 digit?
Did a Djinn post this?
I also fondly remember my life when I was a mere 999 years old.
3.5
????
I remember the pleasant days of being 509.
999 weeks old?
