I moved into a house with a smart fridge. I connected it to the Internet because I thought the idea of a smart fridge was funny. It can send push notifications if the door is left open, that's realistically the only useful feature I think.

    I used to work in a deli. Our scales gave weights in decimals, people always ordered in fractions. One day someone asked for an eighth of a pound. My coworker asks me "Is that .8?" I politely told her "it's .125, so it needs to say about .13." I guess part of it was panic, maybe if she had thought about it for a second she would have gotten it, but to think it's more than a half pound was crazy. People ask for a half pound all the time.
