One common manifestation is that the writers treat binary as a ''language'', when it's actually just a number format (also called base-2). A series of binary numbers has no implicit meaning unless you know exactly how its been encoded: what binary format is being used (is it 8 bit? big-endian? how are negative numbers handled?) and what the data is supposed to represent (ASCII text?color values? hit points?). Consider that the letter-sequence PAIN means different things to speakers of English and French (it's French for "bread"). A MinusWorld is an example of what may happen when a program interprets data in the way it's not meant to.

* Many early computers used analog rather than digital values, ''completely'' averting this in real life. Analog computers still see some uses, but have major limitations for general purpose computing compared to digital (chief among them being that analog computations are neither exact nor reproducible: they can give results that are ''good enough'', but never absolutely perfect).
