  Cool, so Celsius is not a standard because it isn’t global.

    As far as I know even US scientists are using Celsius and centimeters.

      Shit man, I use Celsius and I’m in the glory hole of america.

      I will say this: fuck imperial-measurement-deciders for naming 1/1000 of an inch a “mil”. Fuckin pricks.

      Realistically people uses all of them. There are formulas adjusted for each unit. In a practical context you use the unit that everybody uses around you. With notable exception, such as formulas that require kelvin or Celsius. But you’ll deal with them just fine.

        True. It’s just that due to Kelvin, Celsius is just more convinient.

        And Celsius makes more sense from a objective point of view.

        0 frozen water 100 boiling water(steam)(under atmospheric pressure

        Vs

        0 sth about coldest artificial state you can create a few hundred years ago And 100 the body temperature of a human.

        Both are very inaccurate values.
