    Default ITT I make a baseless accusation.

    I accuse people that say "g's" instead of "k" when referencing thousands of dollars to have IQs lower than that of their "k" counter part.

    Also please discuss your reasoning for one thing or another.

    I say both k and g, but always use k in text. I think in speech the context can change it.

    k is for kilo, a prefix recognized for SI units.

    g is for grand. A gangsta-ass expression used by uneducated ballaz.

    ( http://www.word-detective.com/2008/0...-one-thousand/ )


    In conclusion: g = cooler, k = smarter.

    Ok... geek alert.

    1024 bytes = 1 kilobyte, 1,000 $ = 1 grand or 'g'

    Thus 1 k > 1 g


    In conclusion: g = cooler, k = smarter.

    kilo in reference to bytes is actually somewhat of a misuse of the prefix for convenience in the world of computers. Because of their binary nature, they rely on base 2, so it makes more sense in a lot of cases to use 2^10 = 1024 for 'kilobytes' and 2^20 for 'megabytes'.

    But many hardware manufacturers will use the base10 'kilo' when listing size, which is why your 100gig harddrive only shows up as like 90 something on your PC (using the base2 kilo).

    But the prefix existed before computers, and has always been 1000.

    It's Redsilla's lot in life to make a post on FTR once in a blue moon to remain relevant. No Strat, just relevance.
