You only need 2,450M True Fans to be successful

I am not sure if I understand the point, that this (hopefully) sarcastic post is trying to make.

Counterintuitively, “M” means one thousand, not one million (which is represented by “MM”).

However, I’d argue this is a thing where it’s confusing to the majority of people and it’s the language that needs to change, just like flammable/inflammable (both of which, also counterintuitively, mean “will easily catch fire”).

Edit: also yeah I agree with folks here – this appears to be an attempt to satirize Zuckerberg in some way I don’t understand

You're incorrect there. It depends on what context. M as in thousand are roman numerals, whereas M in greek would be million.

It's not counterintuitive at all, obviously the context here means that it's million, as you wouldn't note thousands as 2,450M in any way, it'd just be 2450. So the only remaining option is that it means million.

It's not even remotely confusing, I'm sorry.

Right after I posted my comment I thought, someone is going to explain to me why it’s not confusing that “M” means “thousand” in some contexts but not others. Thank you!

Seriously, what's the point of this post?

Who let the Android out of his cage?

Only 2,450M? Not a big deal!
