Time units are just as cursed as American units.

Conversion between days, hours, minutes and seconds is a total mess. If you never have to do anything with those numbers, you don’t need to worry about it. The moment you need to do calculations or compare devices you run into completely unnecessary problems that would have been easy to avoid. Just think of pumps and fans with units given in l/min or m^3/h.

Just pick the standard time unit and stick with it. Use prefixes to deal with big or small numbers.

The split between "Today" and "Tomorrow" is at midnight, not when one sleeps/wakes up.

This comes up often after midnight when my girlfriend asks me about "tomorrow". Why discuss breakfast for tomorrow when we still haven't had breakfast today??

People who don’t eat the pizza crust have no backbone and won’t survive the zombie apocalypse. And even if they do, they won’t be let into my post apocalyptic fortress, because they have no backbone which they have proven by not eating their pizza crusts.

In every job there is pleasure and pain. If you cannot stomach some doughy stumps or find a way to interleave the crust of your slice with the center of your next slice, you and I won’t be friends.

A steel ball is not a ball bearing. A bearing is something that bears load and allows for motion, usually rotation. There are sleeve bearings which are just one material or journal bearings which have pressurized oil to separate the spinning shaft. A ball bearing is an assembly with rolling elements (balls, rather than rollers). Those steel balls are just called balls. The whole assembly is called a ball bearing. I used to work in bearing manufacturing and they were just called balls.

Having devices require a USB-C charger might be great for small devices, but it's awful for laptops. That thing is so flimsy it's only a matter of time until it starts having faulty contacts. I've had one for a year and now it connects/disconnects everytime I touch the cable. Gimme back my huge Dell barrel jacks 😭 😭 😭
