People using "orders of magnitude more" when they can't seriously mean more than a doubling :(

@St_Rev It could work when you interpret the base as the number with which you multiply the second digit from left and not as no. of digits. -
@emareaf Or just make every second digit noncoding. -
@St_Rev this trick only works for bases which are a square root of an integer. -
@emareaf The extension to rational roots is obvious! -
@St_Rev True, but what is obvious for you might be 5 thinking steps for me.

@St_Rev then in base 1.414 111 would mean 1 * 1.414^2 + 1 * 1.414^1 + 1 * 1.414^0 or 4.141Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@St_Rev s/4.141/4.414/Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@St_Rev also then in base 1.414 11 > 100 -
@emareaf That's only because 100 = 0. -
@St_Rev i thought 100 = 2 and 11 = 2.414 -
@emareaf If every second digit is noncoding then 100 = 0. -
@St_Rev i was still thinking in having every digit coding and even so i would assume 1coding 0noncoding 0coding.
