@nev @cks I just think there's enough good arguments for using Celsius that we don't need to make stupid ones.

@cks @nev indeed, how could a person ever possibly remember a non-zero number? 31F? Is that t-shirt weather, or should I bundle up? It's impossible to judge!

There's also the implicit humor in checking the weather forecast to see what the temperature will be, but studiously ignoring the part where it tells you what sort of precipitation you can expect, instead opting to guess based solely on the temperature. Sleet? Freezing fog? Hail? Nah, those don't exist -- it's either rain or snow, determined solely by the temperature at ground level.

@kalmanreti @dansup Would I be excited about a proposal to turn this platform into Basically Twitter/Youtube? No. Hell no.

The concept of "social media creators" is a scourge, a mind virus that's part and parcel with "personal brands" and "content"
