It's still pretty ridiculous.
I'm of the opinion that we should do a complete overhaul of our units
and measurement system, including time. Seconds, minutes, and hours
are now totally arbitrary and have zero practical meaning.
I am sure that the way time is measured had a direct relation to how
ship navigation was accomplished, as the first really accurate clocks
were made for this purpose.
There are 360 degrees in a circumference. And I hate to think what a
clock would look like if it had started in Radians.
