Sorry thats 1.8E9nm tall and 8.5 stone. Hope thats easier for you to understand

[-] Sekoia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 47 points 9 months ago

The stone isn't since it's not metric but the height legitimately is since I can just drop the e9 and get a reasonable height.

Since, yknow, metric makes sense.

Well, as the „n“ just stands for „E-9“ it really just says 1.8 m

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

And the comment I replied to said to drop the e9 ...

I don't think you have ever measured an ant

lemmy not letting delete comments forever sucks. I just double posted by accident man!

1.8e9nm means 1.8*10^9nm, which is 1.8m.

It's funny, you try and be intentionally obtuse with the nano units, except doing it in metric doesn't work since "1.8" is still there.
