The only numbers I will ever spell are one and zero, and only when using them as a pronoun, or for emphasis, respectively.
Is there ever a reason to not to use symbols when dealing with numbers? Why would “fourteen whatevers” ever be preferable to “14 whatevers”. It’s just so much easier to read numbers as symbols, not spelled out.
(Caveat, not including multipliers, like “273 billion”).
Yeah not sure what happened to it :/ I uploaded it to Lemmy.world
Here it is again, just for you ;)
Well this is ironic. Something with Voyager, perhaps? I dunno.
It’s the bugs bunny no meme, for style guides asking you to spell out numbers under 10.
