One of my favorite language Youtubers, jan Misali, has an interesting video on Dozenal and "Seximal" (base 6) number systems.

Very good, but I think all these alternate base systems need entirely different digits. People are too used to thinking of '10' as ten.

Also has a followup at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXeX_XKSNlc including a comparison of various bases in representing reciprocals (eg 1/3 = 0b.010101 = 0s0.2 = 0d0.333333 = 0z0.4 = 0x0.555555).

jan Misali makes excellent content! Most of what I know about linguistics I learned from him!
