and i am always in favor of counting with fingers. we were given them for a reason, might as well make the most of them. counting is hard enough as it is
Counting in binary is kind of possible with fingers
Kind of? It’s quite possible and easy. I spent an afternoon counting syllables to create shitty poetry, and my fingers started counting on their own. Now I can count to 31 on 1 hand and it’s surprisingly useful.
You guys are mathematicians not letterematicians.
Also, I’m doing engineering shit and I still need to count using my fingers when calculating something on a multiplication table
I do trig for a living. I don’t remember how to do long division at all.
What set of poor life choices led you to that??
(Kidding)
exactly!

No, counting with fingers is bad. Count with phalanges instead. It’s more efficient
Just be sure to do it in binary. You gotta squeeze all of the value out of those phalanges.
That’s impossible, because it would require tracking each digit at once. Counting in binary is kind of possible with fingers, but not with phalanges.

Drag is in pain when drag tries to fully extend the middle or ring finger with all others clasped.
Drag has issues giving the 🖕?
Yeah, it kinda hurts
Counting cohomology has done to me a numbers x_x
yeah cohomology can be particularly rough. look on the bright side though, at least you now have the tools to answer this question:
Exactly. That’s why I refuse to do algebra.
