There are a couple I have in mind. Like many techies, I am a huge fan of RSS for content distribution and XMPP for federated communication.

The really niche one I like is S-expressions as a data format and configuration in place of json, yaml, toml, etc.

I am a big fan of Plaintext formats, although I wish markdown had a few more features like tables.

32 isn't that cold, even if it's snowing. I do currently live in Minnesota though, so my sense of temperature is much different than someone from somewhere warm.

    That's probably the reason for this preference.

    10°C for me means my PC doesn't heat up the room enough and I need a heater. 32°F and I will be shoving my feet in the heater.

    Minnesotan here. Can confirm that 32 is still long-sleeve shirt weather.

    I regularly see people here walking into a store from the parking lot in T-shirts, in 32° weather. Wind chill makes a far greater difference. 38° from wind chill is far colder than 32° with no wind.
