From what i understand, you can pay iso to standardise anything. So it's only useful for interoperability.

Can I pay them to make my dick length the ISO standard?

[–] gens 6 points 6 months ago

I feel they have an image to maintain, but i also feel they would sell out for enough money. So.. tell me if you make it.

Yeah, interoperability. Like every software implementation of natural numbers that include 0.

How programmers utilize something doesn't mean it's the mathematical standard, idk why ISO would be a reference for this at all

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Because ISO is the International Organisation for Standardization
