Don't be so harsh to them. They have a very effective private schools system, but a very shitty public schools.

>>77991855
>Fahrenheit proposed his temperature scale in 1724, basing it on two reference points of temperature. In his initial scale (which is not the final Fahrenheit scale), the zero point is determined by placing the thermometer in a mixture of ice, water, and ammonium chloride (salis Armoniaci [6]). This is a frigorific mixture which stabilizes its temperature automatically: that stable temperature was defined as 0 °F (−17.78 °C). The second point, 96 degrees, was approximately the human body's temperature (sanguine hominis sani, the blood of a healthy man).[7]
Literally based around technical limitations of science of 300 years ago

The meter has already been redefined based on the distance the speed of light in a vacuum (universal constant) takes to cover in a given time (seconds, defined by the a constant number of periods an atom of caesium has, also a universal constant)
But then again, the American imperial system has been defined as multiples of metric units decades ago, so...

Farenheit, like the Imperial system, is based mostly on immediate references. Body temperature, for example, is not arbitrary in the least.
In Imperial (foot, pounds, miles, etc) every unit of measurement is based on using parts of your body as references. An inch is the length of your thumb joint to the tip, a foot is an adult's foot, a mile is 1,000 paces, etc. This may be hard to believe but hundreds of years ago standardised measuring tools weren't abundant in supply and just a quick stroll over to Pat's Auto down the block.

>>77994280
There's nothing wrong with noting that your previous measurement was imprecise and took a lot of variables for granted. It sure beats insisting on using a system with half assed units that you need to specify a given context for them to be precise

When my Uncle came over he told me a story from England where he accidentally said wog in a restaurant and a lot of folks stared at him and my Auntie. He didn't know why until a friend explained it to him. Yea its nigger. But in Australia, wog is basically any ethnic from Europe. Can be used for Russian as my Dad was called a wog growing up but more so for Balkans and South Europeans.

>>77995746
Yeah nigger is basically how I knew it, only learned it was originally used for other foreigners when I looked it up

Completely subjective. Might be the case at 30 for some people and at -20 for others.

>32
Temperature at which water freezes, but is still comfortable ambient temp with a decent jacket
32 is not a round number so why do you mention it?

>70
Comfortable room temperature
Subjective. And actual room temperature is usually higher than that. Cool a room down to 70F in summer and it's not comfortable at all.

>100
Too hot to comfortably be outside
Subjective. Happens way before 100F for most people though.

By the way did you know temperature is used for things other than ambient temperature? It's true!

>>77993158

They count until 12:59 at a time, but at 12:00 it already switches to the other half of the day. It's a bit retarded, but you can get used to it. It goes 11:59 AM and then 12:00 PM. So 12:00 AM is actually midnight.

>>78006151
He's right, though. Fahrenheit is also more flexible and precise because of the smaller value of a grade. Generally the argument is fucking retarded for both sides because you literally have no real points except "well this is what we're used to"

Meridiam means noon. 12:00 should be indicated as 12 noon. And 00:00 should be indicated as 12 midnight. Calling 12 at meridiam "post meridiam" is fucking stupid.

I seriously hope that's what he meant, but at least the only difference between Celcius and Kelvin is subtracting or adding 273.15, and if you're working with a delta temperature it's the same thing altogether.

>>78008876
See how neatly that's framed within the Fahrenheit scale? If you push your boundaries by 5C it's even closer.
