So essentially you have four digits, which means you can hold 2 or 4 times the data — I forget which.

2³ / 2¹ = 2² = 4

Details for anyone that wants or needs it:

For each single digit or place value added, the possible values—or states—double. Doubling the digits squares the possible values. Two bits can hold values 0–3 (2⁰–2²-1—00, 01, 10, 11), for a total of four, and four 0–15 (2⁰–2⁴-1—0000–1111), for a total of sixteen. Successive binary digits—from right to left—can be represented as increasing powers of two.

When counting: As each place value “fills up”, such as when hitting 9 in decimal, we roll over to the next place value and continue, 10; This true in any number system, as far as I’m aware.

Alright. It just seems to me that anti-intellectualism is everywhere and that is what I first jumped to. I apologize for the accusation. It was knee-jerk. Carry on with your light-hearted ribbing, then.

I am unwilling to make light of another’s desire to learn so that they might help themselves, even if some of the phrasing feels a little silly and market-y.

What does this post accomplish? Feels mean-spirited, really.

It was C++.

Whether you believe voting matters is not important. If it is, if does matter—if you are wrong—to speak of and treat voting as so unimportant is to risk it becomes certainty and self-fulfilling prophecy: A voter that does not believe their vote matters is less likely to vote. A vote not cast reduces the effectiveness of the voting population that may agree with the voter. Enough of these voters results in a scenario wherein anyone remaining aren’t getting what they want, and the cancerous attitude grows.

As brought up by another: Why are so many working to suppress your vote if it does not make a difference? This attitude you espouse is the very same they, themselves, spread, and works to their favor.

It is my position that a machine cannot reliably determine whether a string of characters that would look identical whether produced by machine or human was produced by either. While you could very well be correct, your method for making such determination is—in my view—severely flawed.

Mine was One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish, and—despite not knowing the words, themselves, by heart—knew when something was skipped.

Not that I particularly want to get involved—I do also like inxi—but you can launch Info Center (kinfocenter) from krunner, the application menu, or under About this System in System Settings to get a good amount of this information and more.
