Yeah but C makes more sense. 0-10 is cold but not freezing, 10-20 is cool, 20-30 is warm, 30-40 is hot, 40+ is “you’re gonna die of heat exposure! Get inside, what are you doing?!” increasing in urgency with the number. If it’s in the negatives, it’s the same as the 40+ except “cold exposure”.
It makes more sense in terms of our perception. But from a science perspective Klevin Kelvin makes more sense since you can’t go lower than 0 K and negative temperature doesn’t really make sense, since it’d mean something like negative energy.
Negative absolute temperature is a thing. Lasers exhibit negative temperatures when active, i.e. the lasing medium has a negative temperature expressed in Kelvin. Adding more energy doesn’t increase its entropy, it just turns into more laser light. Any such system with bounded entropy can have a negative thermodynamic temperature.
I had a suspicion there was going to be a response like this. Never heard of it but sounds very interesting.
I doubt I’ll properly understand it without a good YouTube video. I shall embark on a search
F has that too. Below 0, f it’s cold. Above 100, f it’s hot.
0-25 winter sports baby, 25-50 bleh it’s wet and nasty, 50-75 chefs kiss, 75-100 let’s hit the beach.
Hot is still relative. Are you talking about soup, a cup of coffee/tea or outside temperature? People would probably answer differently in each instance.
Eh, as a weirdo who uses Celsius a lot but lives in Buffalo, NY…
-20s is cold. Coat, gloves, scarf, & hat. Long underwear. Not too much evaporation from the lake since it can freeze, so not much snow.
-10s is chilly. Coat, probably zip it up towards the lower end of the range. Decent chance of apocalyptic snow.
0-10s is cool. Wear a sweater.
10s is nice. Maybe consider long sleeves & pants if it gets a bit cooler.
20s is shorts & t-shirt weather.
30s is all AC, all the time. Uncomfortably hot not too far into the range.
40s is “the humidity is now so high the air is soup, filled with mosquitoes”.

A mistake plus Klevin gets you home by 7

Yeah but from an every day perspective you’ve basically got 250 or so units there for no reason.
F has that too. Below 0, f it’s cold. Above 100, f it’s hot. 0-25 winter sports baby, 25-50 bleh it’s wet and nasty, 50-75 chefs kiss, 75-100 let’s hit the beach.
C++ is better ofc /s
Do you have a moment to talk about our lord and saviour, Rust?
NO SOLICITING!
I’ve always thought it’s like: 0- is freezing, 10 is cold, 20 is ok, 30 is hot, 40+ is hell
Above 25 is hot, 30 is hell, 40+ is dead for me
On summer we normally hit 40+ (in some places even 45+) in Spain. I can confirm it’s hellish.
Also 0 is freezing so it can’t snow unless the temperature is below zero.
It very well can, it just won’t stick around.
And 100 is boiling, so cooking is easier
I wouldn’t say it corresponds between negative and positive. -20 is already a lot more dangerous than 40.
Depends where you live, I guess. I don’t really consider -20 to be dangerous but I live in Canada so I know how to dress for cold weather.
Canada is dry. Humidity is the other Killing factor there.

298.15 - 273,5 so its 24.65°C? I’d argue that is a lot. But i may just be heat sensitive
Edit: fixed typo Edit2: fixed another typo. I gotta start proof reading before sending

Well into winter?!

That’s not a lot IMHO. It’s quite warm, but not hot.
