I love it when Chrome releases a new feature, I especially like it when it is experimental. In this post I'm going to show you how I created Tic Tac Toe (Noughts and crosses) with HTML, using one of t
I was actually confused enough to have to check. I frequently work with memory, storage and bandwidth calculations so I’m always aware of the distinction between MB and Mb (and MiB, etc.), so I wondered whether “mb” was intentional, if weird.
Do you really work with memory, storage, and bandwidth? If so, have you EVER run across an instance where memory, storage, or bandwidth were referred to in millibits? Memory, storage, and bandwidth are extremely important in my job, though not my direct focus, and I can say over 50 years as a sysadmin and coder, I have never encountered “mb” and had it actually mean “millibits”. Literally not once. Now “Mb” definitely has some ambiguity (in bandwidth, it’s used for Megabits, and in memory/storage, it’s more often than not a typo of MB), but “mb” actually meaning “millibits”? No, friend. Just no.

No, that’s why it seemed weird.
