China's "artificial sun," officially known as the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST), has achieved a groundbreaking milestone in fusion
I still have some reference books with steam tables and the like that are in Rankine (and Fahrenheit). If we’re using silly units for temperature I prefer Réaumur, that’ll really get people scratching their heads!
I like fahrenheit for temperature “feel” because 100° is close to body temperature and is also “very hot” when used for outside temp while 0° is “very cold”.
100°C is “you are boiling” and 0°C is “pretty cold, but not that bad”.
For any calculations or representation of temperature outside the context of human activity though, Celsius is way better.
you gotta admire the dedication to using the most absurd measurement system though
We could use rankine just to confuse people more.
