Binary Explained in 01100100 Seconds

Binary is a base-2 numbering system and the final language used by computer hardware. Programmers don't write binary code directly, but it's import to understand how a machine uses transistors to organize billions of bits to represent data. fireship.io

The alpha move would be to make a short “Binary in 100 seconds” and just talk as much about it as possible in 4 seconds.

[@jp46614]

Actually knowing how to count in binary is not only to impress your friends, it gives you a good understanding of logical operators such as OR/AND/XOR/SHIFT which are critical in some APIs and some performance sensitive programs.

Binary explained in only 4 seconds?!?! Or did you mean 1101000

[@Atmos41]

Going from transistors and building all the logic gates, then registers and arithmetic-logic units to end up with a CPU was the most fun course I had in school :D

[@Gameplayer55055]

There are 10 types of people: those who understands binary and who doesn't

[@sufilevy]

I would LOVE to see something like 'From NAND to Tetris in 100 seconds', explaining the basics of the computer architecture and logic in 100 seconds (although I know it's a complicated topic that takes way more than 100 seconds :)

create an odysee channel, it lets you sync it with yt, you dont have to do anything else

[@piotrwyrw]

I enjoyed all of the 01100100 seconds of this video. Great job!

[@kishantakoordyal]

Dude literally wrote "hi mom" in binary at the end of the video, and I can't seem to find a single comment about this.

[@Anonymous4045]

Am I going crazy lol. To me, the title can be written as 1100100, which is 7 bits. So, you do 2**7+2**6+2**4, which is 200 and not 100. 100 would be 110010, which is what the title says but without the extra 0, which changes a lot

My university: teaches binary for a whole semester

[@Luclecool123]

Hi, in fact Morse code have 3 possible values: dot, dash and blank

[@crab153]

You make awesome content that is rare on all over the youtube, KEEP IT UP!

if you're not following Fireship - you're missing out.

[@kabirchawla4325]

Was waiting for this, 2 weeks no video. @fireship happy new year.

[@jackg_]

Thank you! I've been wanting a quick video to explain this to friends. Happy New Year!

[@ahmadmuwaffaq9957]

i need more low-level things like this. thank you, Jeff!!!

I learned this working last year in IT. It's always refreshing to hear about it again, though. Especially from Fireship.
