Nerdy hexadecimal joke

Can someone explain this to me? The thing is that dead is in hex. That's 57005 in decimal and 1101111010101101 in binary. Then you are supposed to "add yourself". What does that mean? Add 1? You get DEAE instead. What?!?
 
d,e,a,d = #s in hex. Convert to #'s and add 1. That's your answer

so 13*16^3 + 14*16^2 + 10*16^1 + 13 * 16^0 + 1 = 57006

Wrong!!!

There are 10 people, those that can read hex and those who can not.

That doesn't max any logical sense either.

There are 10 types of people, those that can read binary and those who can not.

Oddly enough, that joke actually makes sense in base-1 notation.

A slight change yes but 11 = 3 so he left one type of person out.


On the other hand a cat has 10 lifes. <--- for j00 to figure out.
 
Ok that's the funny part? That it's a number, 57006? That's the number of people that can read hex? I get it. But it's not very funny 🙁

No it isn't very funny. It could potentially be mildly amusing in the right crowd of people who think they can figure things out but who don't realize that "DEAD" is supposed to be a hexidecimal number and not a word. Their confused face could amuse someone for a few seconds.

I thought Binary went to the power of 2?

1 0 = 2^1
1 1 = 2^1 + 2^2

😕

 
I liked ScottSwingleComputers's mangling of the binary joke better. Fixed up:

There are 11 types of people in the world, those who can read unary and those who can't

... but it's mostly amusing because base-1 numbers are completely useless 🙂
