Sketches in Pursuit of Better Number Systems

*Updated: 2020-09-10* *Topics: [Physics](https://mundyreimer.github.io/archive), [Mathematics](https://mundyreimer.github.io/archive), [Philosophy](https://mundyreimer.github.io/archive)* *Confidence: Speculative* *Status: Work in Progress* --- TL;DR - base 60, base 12, modulus, prime number based systems, geometric systems, maybe even link to a review of the foundations + philosophy of maths series Potentially segue into the [p-adic number system](https://www.quantamagazine.org/how-the-towering-p-adic-numbers-work-20201019/) and potential use-cases (think physical systems that might need fractal-based, recursive, or modular-arithmetic type representations). --- ### Background
