Big Endian won't tell you this but you don't actually need to chose between big- and little-endian, you can just select no endianness!

Endinaness was invented by Big Endian to sell more big-endian

@thezoq2 Can we have the bits reversed in each byte, but the bytes in the right order (for some definition of "right")?

@revk @thezoq2 I've seen modbus devices that do exactly this

@thezoq2 I, for one, only ever have my bits in random order
Show threadTheZoq2Mar 21
@renardboy This is the way. Bit order is just made up anyway

@thezoq2 @renardboy Frankly the sum will do

@thezoq2 WUOT!?

@thezoq2 I like to eval a binary value in big endian AND little endian and the final value is the smaller result subtracted from the larger result

@thezoq2 personally, I prefer Random-endian
Show threadTheZoq2Mar 21

@JennyFluff My preference is german endian

[1, 0, 2,3,4,5...]

@thezoq2 All the bits just in a big pile

@reedmideke Heap endian

@thezoq2 I only use numbers that are palindromes, it makes my encoding slightly bigger but its well worth it for the simplicity
Show threadAndrewMar 22
@thezoq2 just put all the bits in the same place. Much more compact than arranging them linearly.

@thezoq2

getting endianned?

simply say no!

bytes can't be in an order without your consent

@thezoq2 Sausages have 2 ends, why can't bytes? Food for thought.

@thezoq2 Wait until you learn about middle endian which gives you the best of both worlds 😅
