My real life is better without two different temperature scales. And I happen to have learned some chemistry.
It's all about what one is used to. Of Fahrenheit I only know that 100 is about body temperature. Above is too hot, below - could be okay. So yeah I prefer Celsius, which happens to be a little less of a boolean scale to me.
- crasshopper 16y agoWhat's Boolean about either?
- zyfo 16y agoBoolean in the sense of: Is X Fahrenheit warmer or colder than the average body temperature?
- crasshopper 16y agoIsn't Celsius equally "boolean" in that sense then, as in this comment: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2313288 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2313288 ? Above or below freezing.
- nickolai 16y agoSure is. To some people. I was talking about my own perspective :)
