I came across a functioning coder today asking if a kilogram was 1000 or 1024 grams.

Yes they did ask, yes they verified, yes they accepted 1000 grams.

I swear ten thousand years in the future some fucker will 'oops, black hole!' 'cos they began in comp sci and learned kilo = 1024 first and NOBODY WILL CATCH IT. Humanity will be WIPED OUT because YOU LOT KEPT THIS SHIT UP.
