Avid international public speaker. Resigned & begrudging generalist developer. Mental health advocate & grappling with my own experience daily. Opinionated blowhard. Not secretly a goat.
Typically I say "one-zero" if I'm "pronouncing" binary as binary, instead of translating binary into a number for the purposes of working with that number. This in the same vein as hex, where you recite each number/letter in turn, since English doesn't have premade words to turn "1A" into "a-teen".

This is also why I'm skeptical of any idea that developer experience should only be about making things FEEL easy
