Hmm, I was assuming they didn't have a concept of base 10. If they do have it I wonder how they couldn't make the connection and write stuff in base 10 as well instead of a mixed base with weird rules Then I guess the real challen

They probably had algorithms for it, but even then it sounds challenging. Addition sounds easy and works mostly like how we do base 10 addition. I imagine they would first go for sub 5 part which is a bit exceptional and had to be manually.

They probably still exist but harder to type/require some kind of key combination. The reason to move them is not because they are not used (although in some languages probably it is) but they are less used than the additional characte

I remember removing a single line taking me about a whole day. Was working on an embedded c++ project (a tv) and for some reason it was randomly stucking in an infinite loop. Debugging tools were minimal and it took me a while to figure out

Yea, you still can get the info but how many people do really care. I am just saying the people would be more aware on how much they are being taxed. Imo making it obvious like US does would be more helpful even if it is not as convenient I

I don't know about databases but if that decimal is the decimal I know of, it is not a floating point number. In decimal you specify how many bits will be used for decimal & non-decimal parts. If your unsigned decimal has 1 bit for

That is highly subjective. Money is a motivation but some people seeks more from their jobs. I wouldn't work on a job if it is not really giving me a sense of accomplishment either.

I thought dota had one but it has been a while and can't remember if that was really the case. Assuming it is not, I wonder why? Lots of russian players, why wouldn't Valve put servers in Russia?
