Why a kilobyte is 1000 and not 1024 bytes
https://zeta.one/kilobyte-is-1000-bytes/I often find myself explaining the same things in real life and online, so I recently started writing technical blog posts.
This one is about why it was a mistake to call 1024 bytes a kilobyte. It's about a 20min read so thank you very much in advance if you find the time to read it.
Feedback is very much welcome. Thank you.
