DougPaul's 7000th Post

[Mohamed Ellozy]

7000 ... Hmm ... I wonder what that might look like in binary ....... Who would one ( I rhetorically pose) ask?

Ask Google ... who will lead you to (among MANY others) to Decimal/Binary Conversion Tool. This tool will tell you that 7000 decimal is 1101101011000 binary. Most of us are more comfortable with the hexadecimal version: 1B58.

And that’s 7003 posts in 1798 or fewer days, almost 3.9 per day, according to his supposed join date (plus there were all those lost and uncounted posts during the two big crashes, and before we had to register).

I prefer octal, myself...
7000 decimal = 15530 octal.

De gustibus ...

OK, most of my actual experience with octal or hex has been in debugging dumps, I probably have at most a limited affection for either

Huh???

What???

Now, that I can agree with, to the nth degree.

De gustibus ...

This whole thread is about as overworked as a Champlain bridge, and just as well supported!

I thought "de gustibus" was the Latin version of the Schlitz Beer ad, wherein it is written (on whatever they write it on up there) that one should "Go for the Gusto" with the one beer to have (when you're having more than one).

Is that not it?
