Explaining to someone else that outside of the US and Canada (and others, probably), ground floor and first floor are not the same thing was not something I expected to do today…
@jhpratt oh i've had this argument with friends before, this is one of the few points I will defend the US on
@Cyborus I never understood the discrepancy until last year at EuroRust when I saw a floor numbered -1. Like okay, there *is* a slight benefit.
@jhpratt @Cyborus I mean as a computer scientist I'm the last to question that floors are zero indexed
