The UK uses metric in pretty much every avenue of life, except notably on the road, where yards and miles are used.

Except… Not really. The Dept for Transport measures distances in metres, but then changes the unit to yards. Not convert. Change. That is, a sign that says “roundabout 300 yards” has been measured at 300 metres, but the units simply switched to yards.

The UK also measures in fractions of miles (eg ½, ⅓)… Except those are done in metres too! ⅓ mi is defined as 500 m (reality: 533 m), ½ mi is 800 m (reality: 804 m) and ⅔ mi is defined at 1000 m (reality: 1070 m). The only unit that is actually imperial is 1 mile.

So the UK uses metric in distance markings, but then haphazardly converts them to a vaguely approximate imperial equivalent. Madness.

But now it gets even more strange. The UK does not use mile markers on motorways. It uses km markers, at 500 m intervals, with the number of km since the start/end of the motorway, but no units are given. But it’s in km. Not miles.

Oh, yeah.

Happy #caturday!

"You wish me to summon and bind a water spirit to operate your new drawbridge?"

"Indeed!" exclaimed Duke Ruben. "We were hoping you could donate your spellwork for free."

Medea raised an eyebrow. "Why would I do that?"

"Everyone will marvel that Medea the sorceress created this wonder! Think of the exposure!"

"I think," she said, "that transforming you to a frog would net me equal exposure, yes?"

The duke swallowed hard. "Is 1,000 gold guilders good?"

Alt-text is really a big cultural differentiator for Mastodon. Twitter has it, but it's pretty rare to see people use it. Threads doesn't have it at all! And with regards to scicomm specifically, it's a perfect example of how accessibility improves the experience for everyone. I can break down a dense, hard to understand figure that people with vision would still find confusing. To me, alt-text is a non-negotiable requirement of good science communication.

It's time for an #introduction.

I'm glad to meet you! I'm the barista and main administrator of the bsd.cafe and illumos.cafe instances (and other projects), a computer science enthusiast who's been fascinated by technology since childhood. I'm a big supporter of open-source solutions and enjoy working with #BSDs as well as #illumos based OSes and #Linux systems. I enjoy #music and #photography. I've been an avid traveler and am now looking forward to getting back to traveling.I'm married to a wonderful wife and strive to live each day with a positive attitude,making the most of every day to improve our lives.

I like writing blog articles, especially tech ones (https://it-notes.dragas.net) and, from time to time, some of them are widely appreciated, especially in the open-source community.

Thank you for passing by and reading my introduction, enjoy your stay here in the #fediverse
