Next time please ask 'Representative of what?'. I've pushed at managers when they do stupid poo poo and occasionally get them to admit 'because it gets done what we need done, I don't care', or similar. It doesn't change or fix anything but you get to feel smug and right for a bit.

Same problem with std rates. I think I read somewhere that Canada has much worse rates of chlamydia or something than America even though it has more readily available health care. The answer was that better health care means better reporting as more people are going to the doctor.

Positioning aside why whales? Ask anyone how long a blue whale is and they'll answer "uh, pretty long? I guess". Which completely misses the point of a size analogy. That's a big dick! It's as big as three Australian pygmy possums laid end to end!

Blue Footed Booby posted:Blue whales are widely known as not just big, but the biggest (known) animal to have ever lived. It's actually not the longest (some sauropods are longer if you count the tail) but that's still enough for folks to go "wow holy poo poo" even if it doesn't give them an exact idea of the size. That's kind of my point. Noone (virtually) knows how big a whale is, just that it's big. Probably "as big as a school bus?" is as accurate as anyone is going to get. So why not just use school buses, every dipshit in North America has a good idea how big a bus is.

Blue Footed Booby posted:I guess I wasn't clear. The point isn't to convey exactly how big it is; the point is to give something that sounds impressive so that people can go "wow." A really big thing that is also the biggest of its type is better for this purpose than an ordinary thing people can relate to because, again, the point isn't being repeatable. Yeah I get it, I think we're arguing about the same thing. This is why only the most backwards of countries use imperial units.

Judge Schnoopy posted:Germany, France and Italy have higher populations than South Korea by about 10 million each, and UK is about even with all three. Australia and New Zealand combine to half the population of Italy. Yet those European countries (minus UK) only touch the leaderboard if they're combined, whereas the smaller nations are doing just fine individually. Partly because it lets one 'team' have like 50 people compete instead of the usual one or two per country. So that makes sense.

Anyone who has the chance to choose the breed of their dog and doesn't want a mongrel of everything is stupid. Anyone insisting on a particular breed is either a herdsman or a vain twat.

Catnipped posted:I think that's a little unfair to say considering that not everyone wants a companion dog. Some people want agility dogs or hunting dogs or tracking dogs (or even protection dogs, though I'm kinda iffy on those personally), and want to have an exact health history that you don't get with a mutt. Assuming every breeder is just making show dogs isn't correct, some prefer working dogs, and mutts still have the possibility of inheriting whatever issues purebreds can get, so it's kind of a crapshoot. Ofc you're not going to see them on craigslist or whatever for obvious reasons, but saying "all dog breeding is bad" is just disingenuous. That's what I mean by the herdsman comment. Breeding for a particular task is okay because they want them healthy, breeding for looks is what I was getting at. edit: Wait, so homophobic men are basically aroused by pretty much everything equally (assuming there's some undefined standard deviations). And the dips and rises don't correlate with the X axis labels, it should be a bar graph. It's like she went out of her way to make it nonsensical.

At least it wasn't liters/gallons per 100km, the most pointless of fuel consumption measurements.

# ¿ Sep 24, 2016 21:18 |

You have to be kidding. I get x km per litre. I have a 30 litre tank. Therefore I can go 30x km before I need fuel. Or How far is it to a place? It's 270 km. If I get x km per liter than I need 270/x litres to get there. Using y liters per 100km just means additional equations that are less intuitive. Fuel is sold in liters, which is standard. Why use anything else as the constant variable?
