Does anyone have any technique for easily converting numbers to hex and vice-versa using just a human brain?

Ask Alexa instead?

why would you want to do that?

seems like it would overload a neural cortex

however, a map of an individuals entire nervous system could be a biometric password

or you could just use an iris scan (and i don't mean that bullshit product with the bullshit "secret chat" that goes nowhere!)

Binary to hex and back is workable, just look at 4 bits at a time, and learn 0 to 15 in hex

I just divide by 16. Works fine up to two digits. For larger I just run python3.

I can't see how that would work.

E.g. 42/16 is 2, 42-32=10, 42 in hex is 2a

Every hex is a nibble of bit, from there is easier to convert them in dec

Nope, I just use CyberChef
