The weight of the largest lobster on record is precisely the kind of number that needs q1tified. It's a terrible reference point for q1tifications, because when people think of a lobster, they think of a normal lobster. I would purge anything from the database that isn't "normal".
I would also not bother reporting things with large scalar components (>3 perhaps). Eighty-nine space shuttles? Who can possibly picture that even remotely accurately?
Also, isn't it more common to leave a space before a unit (77 kg instead of 77kg)? And why no Imperial units?
Also, what about area?
- duuble 15y agoYeah, but part of the fun of this is to visualize 89 space shuttles. If not then another q1tifier could be used. We'll slowly fine-tune so the numbers wouldnt be so crazy. We have added the spaces. No imperial units because we used SI units as our base, but we're planning to add it in the future
- DanielStraight 15y agoThe program also doesn't seem to understand that kg and g are measuring the same thing. I added the fact that an iPhone weighs 137 grams, and if I search for 137 g, I find it. But if I search for 0.137 kg, the program finds nothing at all.
- DanielStraight 15y agoThe spaces are shown in the results, but you still have to search without them. "1546g" works. "1546 g" is interpreted as just "1546". Either one should work for searching.
- duuble 15y agook. fixed that
- duuble 15y agook added that too. the units is metres squared
