One of my first interviews in Canada I was asked what a “zed-index” is and was like what? A what now?

Whenever I hear someone say "zed", it always throws me for a loop. I follow a Canadian streamer, and they use it in place of ~~"zero"~~ the letter "zee".

I'm not Canadian, but as a Brit I also say Zed instead of Zee but I've never heard someone say Zed instead of Zero. WTF.

Oh, my bad. It was zed instead of the letter "zee".

It's 3am, and I'm exhausted, about to head to bed.
