minus-square@jeffwMlink1•edit-21 month agoI have literally never seen k used in percentages before. Km is common, as is using it if you’re writing out LARGE numerical values (10k or above). I’m not saying it’s difficult to understand. I’m saying it looks stupid.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink-1•1 month agoAlright. And you felt the need to express that you thought it looked stupid to a person saying the meaning was clear to them, so they weren’t upset? Do you get why someone might think the meaning wasn’t clear? If it was your first time seeing the prefix used that way, and the meaning was immediately clear despite not being your style, why do you care?
minus-square@jeffwMlink0•1 month agoYeah, I really care about this, I’m literally losing sleep /s God forbid I back up some folks on social media and say I agree with them
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink0•1 month agoYou were backing someone up? I responded to someone asking how people weren’t upset and you replied about how it’s the worst. Telling someone they’re wrong for not being irritated by something kinda feels like you care.
