Why would I ever use Chrome? At no point in time was it ever a smart decision to use Chrome.

You clearly have never worked with structural steel fabricators.

I'm talking about architectural steel. Not mechanical engineering, structural. I-beams.

I'm talking about trig using feet and inches. You know, rise, run, slope... Have you ever used trig outside of school? I don't understand what you're confused about.

Not as long as it is not reassessed.

People who "fix" things with duct tape have terrible problem solving skills. Being proud of what is essentially low IQ is a weird flex.

Always remember, there are far more lactose intolerant people in the world than there are tolerant ones. The adults who can still drink milk are the weird ones.

Oh really? So if I send blueprints to a steel fabricator in metric, they will not have a problem with that? Lol try again.

As a former structural engineer who lived on a Jobber 5 all day, that's still pretty niche overall. Easier because it's what your used to maybe, but outweighed by situations where it's not. Try doing trig with fractions and then tell me imperial is better.

The market is fucked. The house I bought 3 years ago has doubled in value. It's absolutely insane.

And you might be thinking, Great sell it! But then I have to find a new house that isn't being swallowed up by businesses paying cash for them (good luck). And we will never again see 2% mortgages in our lifetime, so I'm just going to die in this massively overvalued house.
