I didn't know they had metric ones, I need those! I'm a total metric convert, but so far I can only reason about sizes up to about 250mm since that's how big you can print on most printers. Past that it's still feet and inches

Also infodumping about calipers:
The cheap ones can only detect relative change which is why they don't have absolute zero. But that means they always have that circuit on, so they can turn on when you open them. The power button just turns the screen off which is why their battery is always dead

There's also a fourth way to measure with calipers called the step gauge, I never realized it until I read about it. Using the back of them you can measure the step height of an object against a surface, it's a lot easier than trying to do the depth measurement

it's just a placeholder name in programming, the ones people use are foo, bar, bar, qux. i don't know why
how to change a setting:
windows: spend an hour googling and opening 5 different crusty GUI apps from the 90s
unix: $ echo 'export foo="bar"' >> ~/.bashrc
not to mention the registry is different from environment variables on windows

Ballotproof is basically just a student project, the generate.py script is not even 150 lines of code. A decent programmer could write a similar script in less than a day. There really is nothing very technically interesting or sophisticated there
