Define better for everyone? Just because they can do the job faster doesn't make it better, unless you're telling me I get paid the same amount for half the work. If I'm still at work, my employer will find busy work for me to do. Mostly more repetitive mindless tasks. From what I see, this is only beneficial to employers.

Oh, I see my office staff is getting burnt out? Good. Now I know to start looking for replacements. Sure, the concept is neat in theory, but efficiency isn't happiness.

This last bit is just me rambling, but I recall a certain Galactic Empire using technology that used tech for a similar purpose... https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/AJ%5E6_cyborg_construct

Lake lemonade. I got the joke, but the idea of lemonade made from lake water...I shudder.

Thats so interesting to me. I have lived near lakes my whole life, so we learned to swim early, but I can't imagine not knowing it, even if I don't swim more than a few times a year. I think the knowledge is more reassuring than anything.

Congrats on not drowning though! Keep up that streak!

Out of curiosity, is learning to swim something you intend to do, or have you just resigned yourself to staying away from water?

As a 28 year-old male, I should mention that I also would've made mustard gas unintentionally. And I had to clean my house as a teenager. I never had pets though.

Because you consider both hands. You can get to 12 on one hand, but using both hands you can count to 60 total. Thats just a guess on my part though, I don't actually know.

As noted in other comments and the wiki I commented on, it is actually a base 60, not 12. 12 is just the number of digits you can count to on one hand. In the same way the base 10 system works off of both hands, just using a different base.

So essentially, your dominant hand would count up to twelve using the bones on your fingers of that same hand.

On the other hand (This entire comment is worth it for that pun), your non-dominant hand would count the number of times you reached 12 while counting, or the multiple of 12 to use. So two fingers on the offhand would be equivalent to 24, while three of the offhand and 3 bones on the dominant hand would be 2(12)+3 = 27.

At least, that was my understanding from the Wikipedia page.
