This, one million times this. Use SI units. Don't measure distance in hotdogs, time in fortnights and speed in hotdogs per fortnight! It is as stupid as it sounds.

If you do, be explicit about it either in parameter or function name. I'm not going to put you on my shitlist if you're naming your function `microsleep`, but if I have to go look into implementation to see that you count timeout on your database in microseconds (looking at you, couchbase, like you ever could return something from a larger dataset in microseconds, lol) or, even worse, cache expiry time in minutes (hello unknown developer), I am going to go on the internet and complain about you.
