Ugh you're right. I admit I've scrolled through AITA more often than I should, because something about it is really entertaining.
But it's like junk food, I don't really feel good when I'm done with it. More vindictive, like those revenge subs. Being off Reddit has reduced how much I see it, and I don't particularly want to go back to that.
I always thought i for index when iterating through an array. Then you can't use i again in a nested loop so j follows.
Tho sometimes x, y if the array represents coordinates.
Only a maniac would use a, b.
Just tried it. "An oonique"... Sounds fancy.
NovelAI doesn't censor itself. Do with that as you will.
I think the benefit of having metric in base 10 rather than 12 is that it matches our numeric base system.
123mm is 12.3cm and 1.23dm and 0.123m.
Converting things in base 12 would be a bit more work, not sure it'd be worth it.
We're not really going around converting time very often.
12 and 60 divide nicely. A quarter of a 12-hour clock is 3 hours, but in decimal time it'd be 2.5 hours. A third is 4 hours in base 12, but some gross 3.33 repeating in decimal.
I just don't like it.
Small hands. My Pixel 4a is as big as I'll go at 5.8", as I can reach the other side of the phone with my thumb to type one-handed.
