How hard is it to add c or f to the end of a tempreture
How the hell are people supposed to know if you are using celsius or fahrenheit

Context clues
The weather today is nice at 22, but back home it was -10 last week.
I’m in Europe and traveling. How do you figure out the second? If I am American it’s not going to be converted, so that would be F, almost every else would be C.
Context can’t help you in a lot of situations.
22 would rarely be nice in F unless (context clues) we’re in a bad winter but going to a much worse one.
Yeah the first one you can get context from the current weather, but the second is the one that lacks any context without additional conversation. You know what provides the context easier? Saying Celsius of Fahrenheit.
True lol
Where would you be living if 22F is considered nice weather?
That would be 22 Celsius, I even gave you a place for context for that one.
Your example just proved my point. The context for the second one is that the first one is clearly Celsius. Why would you ever change units?
I suppose if this were a conversation about imperial vs metric you’d give me the example of wanting a 50cm board that’s 2 thick and wondering how the reader was supposed to know you you didn’t mean 2 inches
I gave you the example, an American would accidentally switch when talking about the weather back home last week as it would be Fahrenheit in a Celsius county. How does that prove YOUR point lmfao.
Why would an American use two different units in the same conversation
They use Fahrenheit 99% of the time, the only time they would ever use Celsius would be for current local weather when traveling.
Very few people would remember to make the change, and you’re only lying to yourself if you don’t think the vast majority of people would make the mistake. Like it happens all the time when conversing online or IRL already and you want to claim people are smarter than that? Sure buddy…. Why do you think this post exists…? Because it happens lmfao.
I think you’re the one lying to yourself if you think the vast majority of people would just forget to specify. That wasn’t a realistic example of a common conversation about weather in my experience
Somewhere where it gets to -10F. That’s like the difference between 50F and 80F
100 degrees
Tell me if that’s in fahrenheit or celsius
Hint: it has nothing to do with the weather
Well you haven’t given the context. We can’t guess the context and the units.
If somebody has a fever of 100, F. If you’re cooking, C. If it’s weather, F.
You’re cooking, so boiling water
Didn’t say I was cooking either
There’s other things outside of cooking that are very tempreture cooking like science for example
