    Shit like this is why metric needs to be replaced with a base12 system. Base10 is for children who still count on their fingers.

      If at could start at blank slate then base 12 would make a better foundation, but base 10 is far too ingrained into every aspect of our life. It’s much easier to convert time into base 10 than it would be to convert the world into base 12.
