1 datapoint from an european country with less than 2mil ppl: Yes, ofcourse, that is the terminology we use.
And if you wish datapoint from the largest (land) country (Russia): Yes
I mean if you use computer then how can you parse specs any other way but the way we are used to: as written by english people?
- Tijdreiziger 5y agoAFAIK, e.g. in France they use Go (giga-octet) instead of GB (and analogously, Ko/Mo/To).
- gspr 5y agoA French octet is a byte. The b here is a bit.
- nerdponx 5y agoI really like the idea of having distinct abbreviations for bytes/octets and bits!
- ziml77 5y agoSeriously! If I see something like mbps written I have to wonder whether it's saying megabits or megabytes per second. Bits is more likely only because it gives a higher sounding number, but outside of marketing either bits or bytes is equally likely.
- gspr 5y agoWe do: b for bits, B for bytes. People are just sloppy when using them.
