You just adjust the recipe to the measurement system used locally, a difference of 0.182 ml isn't even measurable in baking.
Now, the real problem with the imperial system that the metric system solves is volumes and weights. Say you've bought a water tank and want to know the weight of the water to see if your stand can take the weight. For simplicity I'll use 1x1x1.
A 1x1x1 meter volume of water (1m³) is one thousand liter which weighs 1000 kilos.
A 1x1x1 feet volume of water (1ft³) is 61 023.7441 cubic inches. One cubic inch water weighs 0.036127 pounds. 61023.7441x0.036127 is not how you calculate that and I have already given up trying. According to Google one cubic foot weighs 5.202288 pounds which makes absolutely no sense.

Even better is when the log shows they're logged in and accessing tons of data, then it turns out the URL they're using is "The one you sent me in an email".

I was in a rehab group once for my drinking and, I shit you not, the others in the group decided to celebrate 6 months sober with going on a party boat to Denmark and not drink anything. I heard they stayed sober for five minutes after departure.

Oh great, a racist joke. No doubt with some subtext about some obscure belief about something.

That's not altering the genes of either plant. The seeds from those tomatoes will yield tomato plants, and the potatoes will yield potato plants.
