Binary
-
Compounded or consisting of two things or parts; characterizedby two (things). Binary arithmetic, that in which numbers areexpressed according to the binary scale, or in which two figuresonly, 0 and 1, are used, in lieu of ten; the cipher multiplyingeverything by two, as in common arithmetic by ten. Thus, 1 is one; 10is two; 11 is three; 100 is four, etc. Davies

It's only 10 types of people in the world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.
-
Unlike decimal which uses a base of 10(0-9), binary uses a base of 2(0s

it's how computers talk, stupid! if you tried to communicate in binary it would look something like the example shown below. here's something interesting. 0001 = 1 0010 = 2 0011 = 3 0100 = 4 0101 = 5 0110 = 6 0111 = 7 now tell me how to write the numbers 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 , 15, and 16. if you can do that, you can read binary. GRATS! here's the point of it. by using only ones and 0's you can represent any base 10 number (what we use as humans) oh by tbe way, read snow crash for an idea of why it's a good thing that people's brains cannot directly read binary.

A simplified 0 or 1 version of the 1-10 scale used for rating a person's looks. System is most effectively used when the majority of a population is substandard
-
adj. Arranged as pairs or counted by [twos].
-
Adjective.
Originally derived from a system of rating women that was easy to administer and generally not influenced by the amount of alcohol consumed. Rather than a scale from 0 to 10 (for instance), the binary system breaks it down to a 0 (meaning ugly and would not sleep with them) or 1 (meaning attractive enough to sleep with them). It should be very easy to administer the system to a point where you should be able to walk through a room and point and yell 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, etc. The word entered popular vernacular as an a adjective in November 2008 in Sydney Australia where anyone rated as a 1 was simply called binary.

A slang term for pocket tens in Texas Hold'em. Called this because it is the only hand made up of just 1's and 0's.

Someone who knows binary (figuratively) is a very intelligent person, compared to the people they associate with. A binary
-
Binary (or base-2) a numeric system that only uses two digits — 0 and 1. Computers operate in binary, meaning they store data and perform calculations using only zeros and ones.
While a single binary digit can be used to represent True (1) or False (0) in boolean logic, multiple binary digits can be used to store large numbers and perform complex functions. In fact, any number can be represented in binary.
Below is a list of several decimal (or base-10) numbers represented in binary.
One bit contains a single binary value — either a 0 or a 1. A byte contains eight bits, which means it can have 256 (28) different values. These values may be used to represent different characters in a text document, the RGB values of a pixel within an image file, or many other types of data.
Large files may contain several thousand bytes (or several megabytes) of binary data. A large application may take up thousands of megabytes of data. No matter how big a file or program is, at its most basic level, it is simply a collection of binary digits that can be read by a computer processor.
NOTE: The term binary may also be used to describe a compiled software program. Once a program has been compiled, it contains binary data called machine code that can be executed by a computers CPU. In this case, binary is used in contrast to the text-based source code files that were used to build the application.
Binary Data Containing Only Ones and Zeros
