That's false. And what is "1.1507"? 64 knots = 73.6448 mph. Most people would round-that-off to 74. Is 73.6448 the complete number or does it continue further to more decimals? Is it an irrational number? I've never heard any scientist or weatheman say, "The storm is now a hurricane since it's sustained winds have receached 73.6448 mph." You're argument is not based in reality.
Holy shit dude. 1.1507 is the actual 1 MPH equivalent of 1 knot. Not a rounded number that's easy to say. The reason scientists and weathermen round the number up is because in the context of reporting a storm's intensity, rounding doesn't matter. But it does in the science.
Read above, you crazy bastard. If you knew what a knot was, you wouldn't be clueless of how to convert it. The storms are measured and calculated in Knots. It trumps MPH/KPH as far as the specific data goes. No Hurricane or Typhoon achieves it's status over land.Fuck you. I knew what knots were when all you could do was suck your thumb and roll around getting your diaper in knots.
Huh. so I guess the lunar cycle that's calculated off of the speed of orbit should just be rounded for everything, eh? I wonder how rounding that orbit's length would work for getting a lunar lander to the moon.Actually, programming works with what is programmed into the computer. If there is a restriction to the length of decimals an irrational number is going to be expressed as, then that's part of the program. The classic example of this is pi 3.14 or 3.14159 will succesfully detemine almost all functions of pi. Do you know any examples where a problem requires more decimal points of pi to solve the problem? The lunar cycle is another example. I've never heard any astronomer refer to the lunar cycle as 29.503, they just say 29.5 because that really small change after that is just that.
What do you think, Brad. Would you want to climb into a capsule shot towards the moon with calculations rounded up? I bet that .003 makes a massive difference projected over a 238,900 mile trajectory.
Exactly. Everything must fit into 74. That's why specifics don't matter, just generalized half facts that disregard any substantive data.That's false. It all depends on what exactly is being focused on. GOD=7_4 includes 74, not 73.6 or 73.64 or 73. 644 or 73.6448 or...although those numbers are all properly rounded-off to 74. You are not willing to accept the program/algorithm/code of GOD=7_4, that's a "shitty scientist who would most likely kill himself or others" with your lack of understanding due to your non-scientific dogma.
This is just bullshit. The news dumbs things down for you Brad. That's been my whole point this entire time. You don't hear them use Knots because unless you're a mariner or scientist in the field, Knots aren't a measurement people readily understand.You forgot local TV and radio broadcasts as well as all Internet weather forecasting. I've never heard knots used in describing a cyclone (hurricane/typhoon)
Wrong. Every weatherman and person reporting on hurricanes that in any way come near the United States uses miles-per-hour. You're obviously a 41521385217. Of course, that could be just rounded-off to 4, but then that would leave some guess work.
