Friendly unit conversion man at your service: 114 years.


How much is that in football fields?


If you accept 30 years as the average lifespan of an nfl stadium, 3.8


Good catch. Approximately 9,192,631 Turkish decibels.


Fun fact: the International Bureau of Weights and Measures in Paris is the owner of a perfect 0 dB noise floor enclosed in a perfect titanium sphere (with some sheep's wool filling to avoid reflections). There is a small door on the side over which microphone capsules can be inserted for calibration.

Too bad the joke doesn't work if you understand decibels.


So a half zoom meeting... or 1/3 Teams one.


I genuinely wish there was a cost estimation feature built into them. Doesn't even have to be even remotely close to the true cost if it's anything like the meetings I attend, there will be enough people and it will go on for long enough to make up for it.


I worked as consultant. And started billing at normal hourly rates for meetings. You will be surprised how fast the company desire for my participation in them decreased.


Why would you do anything but that? You want to just chat with me forever the rate is the rate.
