[url=http://isomorphism.es/post/3767526267/fahrenheit-versus-celsius]"In a sentence: Fahrenheit uses its digits more efficiently than Centigrade. Centigrade adopts the decimal convention but then throws away 70% of the range. Fahrenheit’s gradations are so well tuned that it only requires {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9} × {low, medium, high}, for a cognitive savings of 7 unneeded numbers in each of 9 decades. Celsius may be better for chemistry. Fahrenheit is better for real life."[/url]
Suck it, rest of the world.

Edited by Pahat Pojat: 2/23/2015 7:00:16 AMFahrenheit is confusing. It makes sense that water freezes at 0 and water boils at 100 degrees.
-
We should get rid of both and use Kelvins.
-
Too bad farenheit using countries also use standard rather than metric. Then again I feel better when it says I drank 12 ounces of alcohol rather than 354 milliliters.

Shit just got real

Kelvin beats all.

For weather, Fahrenheit makes more sense. For everything else, Centigrade is best.
-
Rain/snow is fresh water. I dont know about anybody else but it seems kind of silly to use a scale for salt water for a weather forecast.
-
And miles are better than kilometres! Damn Americans!!!!

Is this some sort of sick joke or is the guy that wrote that serious?

-
The main argument I'm hearing from this is that this person is more accustomed to using Fahrenheit than Celsius so that makes it better, which is a retarded argument.
-
Celsius is better and easier to use in everyday use 0 for freezing 100 for boiling You are just too lazy to switch.
-
Celsius? You mean communist degrees?
-
It is more accurate than C, but inches is less accurate than CM soooo
-
This is quite possibly the weakest bait thread I've ever seen, you should be ashamed.
-
Fahrenheit has a larger range of digits it uses to describe everyday weather we experience so it can describe outside conditions with more accuracy. Other than that I don't care.
-
Um no, F is terrible for scientific measurement.
-
freezing point = 0 water boils at 100 Fahrenheit is probably some random ass numbers like 22.5 and 76.342
