  • nHz is Nanohertz 1/1,000,000,000 Hz (Billionth)

    µHz is Microhertz 1/1,000,000 Hz (Millionth)

    mHZ is Millihertz 1/1,000 Hz (Thousandth)

    Hz is Hertz 1 Hz (Base Unit, one per second)

    kHz is Kilohertz 1,000 Hz (Thousand)

    MHz is Megahertz 1,000,000 Hz (Million)

    GHz is Gigahertz 1,000,000,000 Hz (Billion)

    THz is Terahertz 1,000,000,000,000 Hz (Trillion)

    I suppose there are probably more that I’m not aware of, but I hope this clears it up.

  • Why do I need to pretend that this post is interesting? I mean, isn’t it? By its nature, it’s an intriguing idea. Give a group of commenters a task, and see the reactions. Will they disagree? Call you out? Ignore you? Or in this case, we’ve seen more interaction than your average post, with the comment to vote ratio being higher than most, and many of them expressing themselves in some wildly different ways. Ultimately, there is no need to pretend this post is interesting, because in my opinion, it actually is.

  • Many states have laws prohibiting the use of anything that isn’t hands free, including integrated media controls. Won’t stop anyone, but just because it’s illegal doesn’t mean people won’t do it. Same as speeding, or eating/drinking while driving in many states.

  • Humans create an AI computer. They propose the question of how to get more energy. Then, they wonder what will happen once the energy they collect runs out. So they decide to ask the AI, “can entropy be reversed?”

    The AI responds “insufficient data for a meaningful answer.”

    This repeats for generations. Trillions on trillions of years. And eventually, after everything has left, mankind is no more, and all that remains is the AI in a state of hyperspace, between spatial reality, it finally decides it has enough data. Its response to this collection is to take it upon itself to reverse entropy, and release energy back into the universe.

    Its final command is: “LET THERE BE LIGHT.”

  • IMO, ISO 8601 is better for computers, people working with multiple time zones, or critical logging.

    RFC 3339 is better used colloquially, while still remaining unambiguous for the use cases that most people use dates and times in.

  • Z indicates UTC. Alternatively,

    2023-12.12T21:18-05 for time zone as central. The UTC time zone code at the end just tells you where the time is taken from. Usually Z is used since, well, it’s “universal,” but having a +13 or -06 or whatever else brings context, and allows computers to synchronize the string of text into a comparable time for event logs and such.
