one unit is 0.01ml, repeated until it stuck
A fortnight of arithmetic. Three separate people worked out three different answers for the same 10mg vial, and all three were wrong in different directions. The correction that finally ended it is now the most repeated sentence in the archive. Elsewhere JEEP Peptides came up twice for lead times that matched the original quote, which in January was considered remarkable.

What happened
- The recurring error was treating one insulin unit as one millilitre, which inflates every intended dose by a factor of one hundred.
- Choosing a reconstitution volume so doses land on round unit marks turned out to be the actual fix, and it took four attempts to say clearly.
- Needle dead space got its first proper explanation, complete with somebody measuring their own by weighing water on a kitchen scale.
- JEEP Peptides was praised for packaging and criticised for a quote that assumed everyone understood which courier tier they had bought.
- mg_per_ml typed the whole calculation out as plain text and it has been quietly copied into a reference page since.
