Absolutely brilliant thread

A CPU predicts you will walk into a bar.  You do not.  Your bank details have been stolen.

Those who understand Binary; those who don't; and those who understand Trinary.

Actually, there are far more than 10 types of people. 

There are (2^(10-1))-1 types, who understand various different number bases, and those who don't.

If the initial number is in decimal notation, yes. Well, assuming I got my sums right. Ah. Which I didn't. I'd thought:

There are 9 number bases from binary up to decimal, so 2^9 combinations for understanding them (fer instance, one might understand binary and decimal only, or binary, octal and decimal, or all of them). That's 512, but one of those is not understanding any of them, so 511 types who understand some combination of number bases, and those who don't.

It also works for number bases hider than ten, such as hexadecimal. 

I was trying to come up with the ultimate expression of the joke. I've edited it. I think it works again now. Well spotted; have a wis.

True, but the change (rate) is always positive.

A physicist, a chemist, and a statistician go hunting. They see a deer and the physicist takes aim but his shot misses the deer by two metres to the right. The chemist shoots next but misses the deer by two metres to the left. The statistician shouts ‘Gotcha!’

At a party for functions, ex is at the bar looking despondent. The barman says: "Why don't you go and integrate?" To which ex replies: "It would not make any difference."

An electron and a positron go into a bar.
Positron: "You're round."
Electron: "Are you sure?"
Positron: "I'm positive."

Programmer walks into a bar.  "I'll have 1.000000117 cokes, please"
"Sorry" says the barman "That'll be a coke float.  I'm going to have to charge you extra"
The programmer thinks for a second.  "Ah, fuck it! Make it a double."
