Thinking about the first computer bug, a moth (discovered by Grace Hopper) in the Harvard Mark II... In the winter here, simple DIY and repair, will often uncover a wasp that has taken refuge in a light fitting or some terminal box. As the seasons warm again, others will drop from their hiding places, brittle shells. I had a cursory search into whether base-6 number systems (senary) were used much by human cultures and it would appear are sometimes. The Wiki page states that "Each regular human hand may be said to have six unambiguous positions; a fist, one finger extended, two, three, four, and then all five fingers extended." "1–6 often being pure forms, and numerals thereafter being constructed or borrowed" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Senary --Mateus (talk) 13:07, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
