Maybe after society has collapsed and been rebuilt we'll end up with km and cm having a weird ratio to the meter. Same for kg. At least celsius is just about impossible to screw up.
- account42 9mo agoCelsius is already screwed up because it's not zero-based.
- fc417fc802 9mo agoCelcius is eminently practical (similar to power of two prefixes). Absolute zero is completely irrelevant for day to day human life.
- NetMageSCW 9mo agoFahrenheit is even more practical for daily life, as it was designed to be.
- account42 9mo agoHow so? 0 = freezing water, 100 = boiling water is at least more useful than more or less arbitrary points of F.
- AngryData 9mo agoCelsius is just as arbitrary as farenheit so I wouldn't be so sure.
