I'll give you a short answer as you've got a lot of detailed ones already: to a native British English speaker "six oh five a m" sounds completely normal. There are other ways to say it that sound equally normal.

Not a direct answer to the question but one thing not noted in other answers is in computing you often work at a higher precision than you need for your final answer as the errors tend to increase each time you do a mathematical operation.
In the world of reasonably powerful hardware (laptops, desktops, servers, smart phones etc.) we'd typically work with 64 bit floating point numbers which gives pi to 15 digits (I think, not at a real computer now so can't check). because it's simple to do so even though we don't need the full precision.
I'm not a big important decision maker but if I always came across your website when searching for answers about software X and your GitHub when looking for code for software X I would go to my manager and say "why don't we just pay this person to sort it out, they seem to know their stuff" and there's a fair chance we'd do it.
I don't like going outside but I do like dogs. One of the advantages of having a dog is that it means I do sometimes have to venture outside.
This. Especially driving out of carparks.
Could you expand on that please? (I sound a bit snarky but don't mean to!)
There's a small number of surprisingly aggressive and unhelpful responses here. People are different and the world, especially the workplace, is made by extroverts and that can be difficult for those of us that are more introverted.
In an ideal world your colleagues would be mindful of that but unfortunately that's often not the case (and of course extroverts often don't engage in a whole lot of self reflection).
You're going to have to put up with a bit of annoying small talk. Try to find something that's a compromise you can live with. After that I'd say being polite but direct is best... nice chatting but I need to get back to work. No further elaboration is required.
You can also try telling some people that you're not a big chatter or something and that you like to just get on with work. See how that goes, people are often more understanding than you would expect.
(I should say I live in the UK and work in a technical industry so YMMV).
Yeah and you can systematically work through the various FODMAPs to figure out which ones cause you problems. It's not that FODMAPs are all bad, it's that there are groups of foods that you might be sensitive to.
Interesting, I've always had the opposite problem - whatever I say they cut way too much off the top. Perhaps we should go together and order each other's cuts?
I'm not sure I have anything helpful to say other than to suggest keep trying different places until you find one that listens?
What are you using instead of Google Photos?
I'm the other way round, email was the first thing I degoogled. It's Photos I don't know how to replace.
Could you provide a explanation for someone not in the US?
Assuming you're asking about the password manager?
Most important for me is that with Bitwarden I can share passwords with someone else.
I think (at least part of) the problem is that whenever the media explain anything fediverse they start by saying "this is really complicated" and then give a ridiculous analogy. The average person switches off as soon as they're told its complicated and the supposed explanation provides nothing helpful.
I agree with you, if they figured out email they can figure this.
I used to feel the same about settings pages but I've noticed I'm so used to the auto save settings way I now get annoyed at the opposite - when I change some settings, exit the page and then discover I've lost the changes because I was meant to click save.
I guess either way can work fine it just needs to be properly designed.
Yeah you can have a PIN with Island.
I'd suggest not calling anything out. People may well not hear exactly what you said and, even if they do, are unlikely to be able to process the information quickly enough. They'll end up guessing what to do and that will often result in them doing the 'wrong' thing.
Chail is currently being held at Broadmoor high-security hospital and will remain there until he is psychologically well enough to serve his sentence.
Doesn't give the poor guy much motivation to get better.
I'm always tempted to get one but can't quite justify the purchase. What difference does it make to your quality of life?
This is good advice. Headphones can also work on another level as a signal that you're getting stuff done and don't want to be disturbed. Not all my colleagues get that but perhaps 9/10 do.
You probably don't even need to remember much. Just asking how the kids are is enough, anything more specific than that is just a bonus.
They're such a good idea we've even kept them after Brexit.
This sounds like a great idea. What feed reader do you use? Are there ones specially for this or better suited to it or will any do?
I envy you. My microwave, oven, car and others all apparently have to have a clock but aren't capable of switching automatically.
I'm not sure why, in the 21st century, we have clocks that can tell the wrong time.
I've heard it suggested that they didn't expect to get as far as they did into Israel and they barely expected to get past the border wall. If that's the case they may not have planned what to do when they did and so there may be no grand strategy behind some or all of it.
I guess we'll never know.
