Why did Mark Watney need to use hexadecimals when he could have just used our base 10?

Why use a more complicated system for numbers when he could have just used our base 10 system? Why use numbers and letters when you can just have numbers?

Should I continue The Martian?

I love scifi. As a scientist myself, I really enjoy cool science topics that pique my interest. I loved PHM by Andy Weir and so thought of exploring his other books, the fist recommendation anyone throws after reading Project Hail Mary is The Martian. So I started reading it and I’m having a lot of trouble getting into it. What I liked about PHM was obviously the main character’s personality and humor, which The Martian also has, but also cool (to me) scientific concepts like Astrobiology, alien life, mass energy full conversion, high stakes, complex alien interaction and friendship. I can absolutely do without all of those if there’s science which I find cool to me. So far, it’s all been very engineering related. The mechanics of the MAV, MDV, the space suit, the dish. That is something that’s unfortunately not interesting to me.

So should I continue with The Martian or not? Does the book change trajectory or is it focused on solving these engineering problems?

The Martian changed for Artemis?

When the Will Wheaton audible version of The Martian came out the ending scene was changed to Commander Lewis offering Mark a job with an African space tourism company.

Was this changed to directly tie into Artemis? Was the company that Lewis started working for the same one that began Artemis? Obviously Mark eventually goes back to space in Artemis. I was just curious if we have direct confirmation that this is indeed the job that Lewis offered him.
