Sampled at what resolution, though? It’s a physical painting and the true, atomic-scale resolution would make this whole system useless.
May I suggest the entire constitution in ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) instead? Bonus points if any future amendments change the whole system.
Size of an uncompressed image of the Washington Crossing the Delaware painting = 1 Yankee
12 Yankees in a Doodle
60 Doodles in an Ounce (entirely unrelated to the volume or weight usage of ounce)
60 Doodles in a Dandy
That’s too straightforward. It should be 113 Doodles in a Dandy. And 73 Dandies in a Macaroni.
4 Macaronis in a bit of an ounce.
8 Macaronis in a full ounce.
How many Macaronis in a Handy though? I’d say 1776.
… I’ll see myself out.
Maybe its the number of men in the boat number of dandies in a macaroni
giggity
Make sure to make the specific term “Computer Ounce”, or co. oz.
Better yet, just use “cooz” as the “common unit”
Then it’s proportioned following fluid ounce measurements from there. e.g. “coc” (computer cup) is 16 coozes.
Ayyy, I’m in COLORADO so this would be great.
I second this. It makes total sense - computer memory is a volume to be filled with data. They ain’t call parts of a hard drive volumes for nothing.

Edit: I suppose you actually want to start small. Maybe just the declaration sans-signatures, then. So, 6610*7 = 46,270 bits.
Congrats, in my almost year on Lemmy, this is the best comment I’ve seen!
