Comment on temperature
NegativeInf@lemmy.world 9 months agoThe universe is mostly empty space with an average temperature of like… 4 Kelvin or some shit. Why not use a system that reflects that? Oh, we do? Right. Celsius is Kelvin + 273.15.

Are you made of mostly empty space? Your response does leave me questioning. Please aknoowledge that you are made of 64% water and not 4°k nothing.

I mean, yeah, we all are. That’s how atoms work.
alternatively, yeah, mostly between his ears.

Plese do not use Kelvin with a degree symbol. There ist no “degree Kelvin”.

Please make sure you are right before you correct someone www.techtarget.com/whatis/definition/kelvin-K

I don’t know why “techtarget” would be a credible source on Physics questions, but the SI convention, which is, according to Wikipedia, the “only system of measurement with an official status in nearly every country in the world, employed in science, technology, industry, and everyday commerce”, poses that “kelvin is never referred to nor written as a degree.”
But I also made the mistake to write it as “Kelvin” instead of “kelvin”.
