Boolean value, 21st century style
By hansl - April 11th, 2009
From Christopher C. Stacy's message yzlr60b10vo.fsf@news.dtpq.com in alt.folklore.computers:
<XMLBooleanValueObject xsi:type='typens:XMLBooleanValueObject xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2010/XMLBooleanValueSchema'
"xmlns:typens='http://bits.com/schemas/BooleanValue/1011'>
<BooleanValueIsTrue bits="1">True</BooleanValueIsTrue>
</XMLBooleanValueObject>
...and I wish it was a bit further from the truth than it really is.
Curiously, ignoring the line breaks, this representation of a single bit takes up exactly 256 bytes, which means it's exactly 2048 times its information content in size.
