Binary Dates
Posted by TA Lucas under Educational, Random, Tech
Here’s just a bit of geek trivia for you. 2010 and 2011 are binary years, meaning they have dates that can be expressed as a binary number. 2010 contains the 9 specific binary dates shown below. Replace the year with 2011, and you get nine more.
And if you want to get even a bit more geeky, the date 10/10/10 is specifically interesting. It is the binary number (101010) for 42, which we all know is the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything. Â Now there’s a little Deep Thought for you…;-)
After 2011, we won’t see another set of binary dates until 2100.
