- base 4096 (for UTF8 channels)
How should base 4096 be expressed in UTF8, what does it look like to humans, and what happens to it when one copies and pastes it? Works really well in Twitter. Likely well in Facebook and on web pages.
Looks like Hangul or Chinese depending on starting point in code space. 갇됰꼊꽦덐묻렐딉뇧뎶궄뚴뚮덺묝꿋륻긺경
How efficient is it compared to base 60 (upper case, lower case, and numbers, with 0/O and 1/l canonicalized) Base 60 is better for ASCII channels … plain email and human transcription.
