Itās the same. After a 1000 is a 100,000, then 10,000,000. Thousand to lakh (100k, look up the pronunciation Iām too lazy) to crore (10 million, pronounced crowr with rolled rās, like crow with an r at the end).
Not sure why itās like that tbh, but itās just different comma placement, both systems are still base 10 (idk how a country could exist with the rest of the world if they didnāt use base 10)
Yeah most number systems in history have been base 10 cause 10 fingers, and some of them are the absolute worst \*cough\* *roman numerals* \*cough\*, the real special sauce was zero combined with a positional system
Cause for example [cuneiform numbers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babylonian_cuneiform_numerals) also had positioning (and base 60, they rule) BUT no 0, so it wasn't nicely standardized how to make sure "202" looked different from "22" (the "zero" would just be leaving the middle space empty)
In a way what base it was isn't even the important bit, cause with zero and writing both big numbers and fractions with this "power based on position" way, you actually just have a kickass new way to write numbers in *any* base (though with big bases you might want to do something clever with "sub-bases" to not need a bajillion symbols, like cuneiform or the awesome [kaktovik numerals](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaktovik_numerals))
The deleted comment was something like "it's terrible, there's a reason why scientists around the world use the decimal system" hence [my reply](https://www.reddit.com/r/SpeedOfLobsters/comments/z8rk9j/they_clearly_have_spoken_%E0%B6%A9/iye68s0)
Itās not just about the commas, the commas reflect how you say the number - normally you would say ā2 million 228 thousand 444 votesā, but in this system it is ā22 crore 28 lakh 444 votesā instead.
It is the same number, just segmented differently.
There is also ālakh croreā for tens + hundreds of millions, and then (I think) you switch to billions etc from them on as usual.
How you group the digits in a big number isn't a defining property of "The Decimal System", which was even invented in India (or decimal place value numerals including zero more specifically, base 10 stuff in general is happening all over the place)
Grouping digits 3 at a time (and the modern scientific prefixes) is more like a legacy of Latin/Greek as scholarly languages in Europe
What does that even mean?
To my knowledge, Apple hasnāt said anything, so is he just saying this unprompted? All I can see this doing is putting more pressure on Apple to do something
Edit: Musk has apparently announced that he spoke with Apple and that Apple was never going to remove it from the App Store. Fucking called it.
Why do people even believe this guy?
Context for those OOTL: Musk claims Apple has [stopped advertising on Twitter](https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1597285572699074560) and has [threatened to remove Twitter from their app store](https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1597300125243944961).
As for what this Tweet is trying to achieve, who knows. Maybe he wants to engage Apple in a PR battle by preemptively framing their decision as "censorship "rather than "cracking down on hate speech", or maybe it's just because he's got a big ego and likes to see people agree with him.
Apple just neutered AirDrop for chinese protestors, removing the ability to share files device to device, basically bending over for the CCP, as well as showing where their true allegiances lie
I donāt think this is true. My understanding is theyāve just made it so it sits in āContacts onlyā mode by default and will return to it from the āeveryoneā setting after 10 minutes.
It definitely dampens peopleās ability to share material in untraceable ways to strangers.
The game itself is pretty great, the memes are so stale they're starting to loop around. I prefer boardgames for social deduction though, more "finite state puzzle" than the fuzziness of moving around a map in real time
holy shit, sus? like the internet meme from popular game among us?!?š¦

Indian counting system with lakhs and crores, pretty interesting
Maybe the deleted comment already asked this, but is it the same as ours just with different comma placement? Or way different?

I mean they kinda invented 0 and base 10
Invented zero, sure, base 10, idk

After they switch to billions, do they start grouping zeros in threes again? So there will be a patch in the middle of the number grouped in twos?

I often wish we had twelve fingers so we'd have naturally gone to a base twelve system
Only two fingers. That would be hilarious.
Not any worse than the imperial system
yes.
Orifice?

This is the easiest āno commentā ever for Apple.

Elon doesn't care about that
I doubt he could even point China on a map tbh

They compromised with China to make MONEY?! Iām shocked
I forgot that apple is a company and I was 100% ready to accept that the fruit is sus
its not too late, apples (the fruit) can still be sus
I didn't see the "sus" and was expecting his second profile picture to be him eating an apple.
Please buy tiktok Mr elon
LET IT DIE LET IT DIE LET IT SHRIVEL UP AND FUCKING DIE ALREADY!!!
Are you referring to amogus memes, Twitter, Elon Musk, or Apple? In all cases I 100% agree
Just among us, the rest can somewhat stay but I hated that game ever since 2020 and I hate it even more now
