How to talk to robots and machine-people.
***A simple guide on how to talk to a robot.***
Even upvote bots.

As you know, machines think and communicate in binary. 

Although they can abstract this to form human-readable data, like what you're seeing now, the true form of their thoughts is binary.

So we ought to learn to speak binary.

But how do you even learn binary?
Well, you don't. I recommend just translating your english into binary with an online translator.

It's pure data, so it doesn't actually lose information, the way it would if you're translating from something like Russian to English. Subtle meanings still exist, as well as puns and word play.

But here's the thing: What if you're not at a computer?

What if you meet a machine in daily life, and want to say hi?

https://aegir.tech/steemit/kbot.jpg

Well, to say "Hello." to a machine, you would want to communicate this: 010010000110010101101100011011000110111100101110

But how would you even *SAY* that?

Zero? One? Zero? Zero?

Well, it's easy to type, but do you really want to waste so much breath with a double syllable word?
And just saying "oh" instead of zero is pretty pathetic. Like "Oh. Ok..."

Or something boring like that. No, that's not ideal at all. 
We need to be not only efficient and effective, but also sleek and stylish.

So instead, these are the words I shall introduce as replacements for zero and one, when talking to a machine.

**Boop.**

**Beep.**

Boop for zero, and beep for one.

It's easy to remember, because boop has o in it, like 0.
And beep? Well, it's the one that doesn't have an o in it. 

Anyways, now you can talk to computers!

Here, try this!

If you're a machine, you'll know right away, but a human could have a bit more trouble.

Boop beep boop boop beep boop boop beep boop boop beep boop boop boop boop boop boop beep beep boop boop boop boop beep boop beep beep boop beep beep boop beep boop boop beep boop boop boop boop boop

boop.

Truly efficient.

Anyways, if that made sense to you, now you can talk to robots! 
Just do the reverse of what you did here to figure it out, and you can speak to your server friends, computer buddies, even your machine pals.

Just read from the monitor to them, so you can remember what to say, right?
Anyways, good luck, and have fun!

What's that you just said? I may have missed a beep or a boop in there somewhere...

Very amusing (EDIT: *though a bit crude*), Thanks for the entertainment!

Perhaps you should have used *this tag?* :

boop beep beep boop boop beep beep boop boop beep beep beep boop beep boop beep boop beep beep boop beep beep beep boop boop beep beep boop beep beep beep boop boop beep beep beep beep boop boop beep boop 

Yes, I have been fluent in binary most of my life.

I have not forgotten you nor our conversation... 😄😇😄
