Scott Manley has a couple of things to say about the fallout. It’s not good.

With a little luck it will experience a “Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly” before the IPO 😁
I want to make sure that the schmucks who financed this abomination in the first place pay dearly for it, rather than fleecing the subsequent hapless small investors and the rest of society who don’t understand and will buy into the hype.
Can we please have the bubble burst before the IPO?
I have some bad news for you … the rest of the world outside school uses even more paper.
The word you’re looking for is … abomination.

Because they’re likely not all using the same data. Some will be time delayed, from a different weather station, averaged over a different period, any number of variations.
Temperature is measured like this:

Have you considered that the temperature displayed by the phone comes from the internet, rather than an onboard thermometer?
If it helps, it’s the only thing I think of wherever I encounter it, bus lines, taxi numbers, number plates, street numbers, you name it.
So, yeah, I think it’s funny.
TIL that it’s about relative temperature, rather than absolute. In other words it’s news because it’s the highest it’s EVER been, rather than because it’s a high temperature.
I live in Australia and we regularly hit 40°C.
This year we hit, 42.9°C, last year 44.7°C, the highest on record was 46.7°C. In other words, it gets hot.
Why is over 30°C in the UK news worthy, what makes that more significant than when we hit 42.9 on a Monday?
It’s OK to use 200 instead.
