It’s like people making these memes don’t understand that intuition is learned. One is not universally more intuitive than the other
Paid off by big nuance. We don’t need that shit here. Everything is black/white good/bad.
This is objectively the best comment ever made on any post on the internet!🏅
I think the point of the meme is that it’s a silly premise, and few people actually believe things like this
I bet you prefer Kelvin.
Not at all. I find Celsius much more intuitive but I’m not trying to argue that that is universally true.
You’re right, Rankine is clearly the best.
(Anyone actually know what Rankine even is outside something ddg told me exists?)
Mechanical engineer from a power plant here. Rankine is the best, can confirm. Room temp is like 530 degrees. Now that makes sense.
God I love it when I walk inside when its hot and the temperature is just under 530. The best feeling ever.
You made it sound so nice I set my thermostat at 530 too. The solder melted out of my TV and the magazines on the coffee table spontaneously ignited. On the plus side I can cook a pizza in the living room now instead of getting up to go to the kitchen.
Isn’t being intuitive the whole point of metric?
The math and prefix conversion is intuitive (because most of the world uses base-10 these days). There is nothing particularly intuitive or handy for either of them with respect to temperature - you just learn what it means and work with it. I’ve been using metric since I was 6, so like a good Canadian weather is metric and baking is Fahrenheit. When I talk about combustion points, melting points of metals, boiling point of water, back to metric. See? Intuitive.
The fuck is a Fahrenheit
Sounds like a disease
Keep that shit away from me
Fahrenheit is German for “driveability”
50 degrees Fahrenheit means the roads are 50% driveable
0 degrees Fahrenheit the roads are too icy to drive
ah, 50 degrees, the perfectly average temperature
When everyone else is 65% warm, I am 100% warm
Manipause is real
- Remove everything to the left of the video ID, the “?is=xxxxxxxxxxxxxx” part is just there for tracking.
- As for the claim itself, it is dumb to argue what temperature scale is better to use outside of scientific/technical applications, it is just down to personal preference, what you are used to.
Works unless it actually gets to freezing.
Freezing is just for water not a cool guy like me
