I meant the one above that - but from your answer I deduce that that’s actually what Windows looks like nowadays? Oo
Thank you!

What is that? I first thought this is what Windows might look like today but now I’m curious what functionality a program like this solves!


If on he other hand you want a transition that’s really painful and slow but sooo rewarding (highly subjective, of course) you can look into nushell. They just said “screw this 50 years of conceptual baggage and let’s do it data centric and proper”.
I still am at perhaps 10% the speed of my zsh setup but the concepts are so intriguing I’m sticking to it. At least I try to …

When we’re in a fast paces dialogue with a high level of rapport I start speaking my thoughts before they’re finished - and it happens that a thought starts out as “my opinion is …” And in the middle transfers to “oh it would be way more interesting what your thoughts on this are!”.
Or I’m mentally distracted and fall back to the monologue voice …
Either way: the flow of the sentence already started as a statement and now I want to make sure that it’s clear that your input is wanted and appreciated - and instead of saying “and perhaps that sounded like a statement but please treat it as a question” I fall back to “question mark.”

Whaaaaaaasaaaa
I have no idea how I’ve missed that y today I’m over of the lucky 10,000 I assume. Thanks!
The concept of length is way older than these definitions, same for weight and so on.
The meter is an awesome example for what I mean: the 1/1000000 wasn’t random. From my understanding it won over the alternatives in dezimal because of it’s relative closeness to an arms length and the definition was used to remove issues in France because of the (metric) fuckton of different measurements for length.
And the second example of yours is even better describing what I meant: it’s just making sense and is practical not a deep scientific reasoning.
And I won’t bliebe that the foot and inch was conceived by anyone who has a scientific approach.
To be clear: you’re right that basically by definition the units were done by professionals. I try to point out that for the more broader used units practical aspects were at least as important (after all it wasn’t a square meter that was used for the gram but a centi of one).


This is a proposal. Why does the article write as if it’s a fact?
You sent me down a freaking rabbit hole, thanks! :)
From what I found is that there is the simple reason that the weird ones are distance, time and weight - the rest I looked into are based on formal non-normalized definitions (including lumen, which surprised me).
My guess is that in depends on where the unit comes from: science or day to day use.
I learned about the Siemens, the Weber and the Gray on the way.
Thanks again!
