I think part of the reason it works like that is because 2 to the power of something converted to binary, the exponent is the number of zeroes that follow the one. 

 

In other words, 

 

2 = 2 = 10

2² = 4 = 100

2³ = 8 = 1000

2⁴ = 16 = 10000

2⁵ = 32 = 100000

2⁶ = 64 = 1000000

2⁷ = 128 = 10000000

2⁸ = 256 = 100000000

2⁹ = 512 = 1000000000

2¹⁰ = 1024 = 10000000000 (Binary Mega)

...

2²⁰ = 1,048,576 = 100000000000000000000 (Binary Giga)

...

2³⁰ = 1,073,741,824 = 1000000000000000000000000000000 (Binary Tera)

 

In other words, a power of two in binary will always look like a power of ten in decimal

 

And for the purposes of binary, perhaps it was just easier that way. 

 

Binary is so awesome. It can be used to represent almost anything that has two extremes. 0 or 1. Off or on. Empty or full. Black or white. No or yes. False or true. South or north. That's why people can make computers in Minecraft.  As long as you have something that can represent one of two possible values at any given moment and for more than one of those things be able to communicate with each other, you have the fundamental building blocks of a computer.

Speaking of lesser-known songs by famous bands, 

 

 

 

Not your typical "1979," "Muzzle," "Disarm," "Thirty-Three," "Cherub Rock," or "Rhinoceros" :comeatus:

 

 

Farewell and goodnight, CtaM.
