The title suggests that the story is about length units in general, but as I was reading I concluded the story was fixed on screens. So at first I was thinking why would inch be better than cm? Then I thought okaay cones... (following some numbers) yeah..so? I don't know why 32" screen from 7feet away is 0.8 something cn and what does that 0.8 mean? What is a good cn when looking at a monitor?
Changing somethings properties to make it do/able to/usable for something else.
Some people used a lot more time/resources/motivation than others and they want some kind of title that sets them apart from the rest... I think hacker is the wrong title for them.

I looked deeper into this and found the good way to write down the number.
I was wrong earlier. Here goes example: +44(0)1234 567890 The + is the international access number (from the country you call from)which is 00 is my country The zero between brackets is to show the international number and the national number, people in your own country can call 01234567890 and people if I were to call you I would dial 00441234567890. ( 00 is the international acces code here)
