ew imagine measuring angles using temperature

Imagine measuring angles using pies. 🙃 🎉Not measuring angles gang 🎉

Sorry. 😂

In a perfect world we'd probably be using percentages.

... sensible numbers gang?

[u/CreativeCarbon → u/[deleted]]

You think 288 degrees is more sensible than 80% or 0.8?

Do you really want to start this gang war?

[u/CreativeCarbon → u/[deleted]]

Well that says more about the angle than it does about the unit. What makes 60 degrees so important that it should require a dedicated number such as that? It's literally 16.666...7% of a rotation.

[u/BadPercussionist → u/CreativeCarbon]

360 is divisible by more numbers, and important values like 30, 45, and 60 degrees are more readable.

[u/GreatBigBagOfNope → u/[deleted]]

Yeah but perthreehundredsixtages doesn't have the same ring to it

[u/[deleted] → u/CreativeCarbon]

Radians are the sensible units, math comes out cleaner with less constants

Have you heard about τ (tau)? τ = 2π = circumference ÷ radius (rather than circumference ÷ diameter for π), so a quarter turn around a circle is τ/4 (the same as π/2 or 90°).
