You Count on your Fingers Wrong

[@xxnoxx-xp5bl]

So... Not counting wrong, but not counting in binary. Interesting, but not an accurate title.

[@30IYouTube]

1:50 is a reparation of how glitchy states can occur, because they add one, but overflow back to 0. This causes the “level 0 kill screen” in PAC-MAN, and the glitchy appearance of Missingno in the first generation Pokémon games.

Nice

Nice

[@babyroxasman]

I am very confused But then again it is 1am

[@owu3109]

Nahhh it’s 3AM now

[@kino_61]

If you want to start use the Sumer way where the segment of any finger is 1 for each side and one hand is 30 (15 segments -including thumb's hidden one- on the palm side and 15 on the back of the hand)

[@harasen_haras5]

Counting wrong? Well, maybe not as good for a computer as for a human. I think I'll stick to my human way for my daily use, but this is still an interesting thing.

[@joepelletier6694]

I knew exactly what you we're going for from the title

[@biopsiesbeanieboos55]

You forgot to mention that information about which finger represents which value would need to be agreed on and communicated to create a reliable counting system. Left to right, inside to outside, what if the image is reversed in a mirror, is it from the counters perspective or the viewer etc. When each finger represents 1 unit, those problems don’t arise.

[@mortimermouse3086]

That's a really good point

[@cerjmedia]

some of the numbers quite literally hurt my hand to do lol that being said, where you are ACTUALLY counting wrong is by using two hands to count to ten when you can use just one, no joke I have been doing this for 5 years now to the point where if someone needs me to count and I use my hands I instinctively do it this way 1: Thumb (or Index) 2: Thumb, Index (or Index, Middle) 3: Thumb, Index, Middle (or Index, Middle, Ring) 4: All but Pinky (or all but Thumb) 5: All 6: All but Index 7: All but Middle 8: All but Ring 9: Thumb, Index, Pinky 10: Pinky (but I typically use my other hand)

[@damonlaye6175]

This video blew my mind and has commenced a new obsession!

[@stormyskyz7881]

I appreciate your videos!

[@Lauren_C]

So each hand carries 5 bits of data is what I'm getting from this video?

[@wolissotribune4000]

I closed the video midway and understood what mind boggling mean.

[@deathbringer2000]

1:50 INTEGER OVERFLOW!

[@bellabee4755]

My friend can count to 1023 in binary on his fingers

[@floydnelson92]

I can too

[@VANKODUBZ]

GOOD GOD THIS MANS THUMBS ARE HUGE... that’s cool

[@withoutcommentary-kh6rx]

I like to use my thumb as a holder for other fingers when counting, so for me, there is one less digit.

[@HadenBoru]

2:36 I am the rythym core, I produce rythyms.

[@justarandomwoof2247]

Idk why but I can count actually pretty fast like this.

[@lexibigcheese]

At start of video, as in, before i watch: Well i count in binary so that leaves me up to... 2^9? 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024-1, 1023 yes that was it. Then clicks on the video only to find that's the exact way: FOr heAVenS SakE!

[@saltysal110]

Background music is distracting

[@userg23]

the background music is too much disturbing... its not even required in such educational videos

[@Dumb-fw1ey]

I think I just pooped my brain😂

[@roucoupse]

The music at 2:50 sounds like coming from an Amstrad CPC. Which game is it? Is it Amstrad?

[@c.kainoabugado7935]

Nope. I decide that. I count fine.😂

[@sonsofradiation9001]

If I did it right at 1:19 100 is 1000 in binary

[@atriplen1831]

Sons of radiation That's wrong, 100 is 1100100

[@sonsofradiation9001]

AtripleN ok thanks

[@aniksamiurrahman6365]

I can do better. I can bend each of my fingers 4 ways. So, I can calculate upto 4**10 = 2^(2^10) = 2**1024. Now take that.

[@markusTegelane]

1 + 1 = 10

[@deadbox2003]

Ok google

[@SDRIFTERAbdlmounaim]

so this is where the bullshittery starter for u xd

[@crayfishy1771]

This video has 34k views with 1.7 million like💀💀💀

[@rogeliomendieta-garcia8192]

U got a big thumb

[@nini1957]

I clicked LIKE but that changed it to 223 likes, so I removed my like. Sorry, OCD wins again!

[@apersonwhoneverateataco1405]

people do not like PAINT

[@arbitercs]

what

[@SmashPortal]

As someone who understands binary, your explanation left me confused from the standpoint of someone that doesn't know it.

[@CSAlso2]

I can count much more then 1023 and do it on one hand, ASL. Your chosen hand counting language, Binary, isn’t the most efficient when counting with your hands 😀

[@kamrunnaherrekha9043]

Yeah, I can count up to 9999.

[@coppersalts]

132

[@khoa1708]

just watch Interstellar lol

[@ThePiGuy24]

I have counted in binary for a while

[@hammythesyrianhamster7300]

Wow

[@melody_florum]

I already count like this. I watched a 3blue1brown video and I use it now

[@user-tl2qn1qi1g]

Grow up.
