when I get home in 16 hours

Don't you mean 17.28 hours? Jk, of course. I enjoyed your thoughts. As other users have said, this sounds a lot like base-12 math. I am not great at institutional math, though I enjoy the abstract thinking theoretical math requires. It does not sound absurd to me that our use of base-10 math might detract from a deeper understanding of the universe. I've always heard that we use base-10 for no other reason than the number of digits on our hands. If this is true, what are the chances that 10 is the most efficient? Low, if you ask me.

If I've decided one thing about my reality, its the fractal nature of all things. Due to this, I seem to put weight in base-8, as 8 is a power of 2. Base-16 would potentially satisfy my theory, but I have no idea if there is a practical use for base-16 (or any other base number system for that matter).

I'm more of science guy than I am hard math, but interesting stuff nonetheless.

Prime numbers all end in 1 5 7 or 11 in a base-12 math. I have reasons for doing base 12 I just couldn't write them, stay tuned for tomorrow.
