A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
I don't think there's any technical reason we can't count in base pi
I'm pretty happy with being able to write integers in a finite number of digits. Wouldn't want to give that up.
Well we need an integer base number system....
"A base is usually a whole number bigger than 1, although non-integer bases are also mathematically possible."

But it makes life harder
Not if you're mainly interested in counting multiples of pi.
nπ is much better
