Keep going. We may be homing in on how the number order was derived for a dartboard.
Shouldn’t 2 be where 1 normally is, etc and 8 be at the top?
edit: I see you’d posted a similar one a few days ago and that had the same thing. Off by one, an evergreen programming error!
Idk to me the top position is index 0, even though it’s labeled 12.
Think about it this way: when a new day begins, where are the clock hands?
Indeed, which is why 8 should be at the top.
The hours have been reassigned in reverse alphabetical order. This means the number which you hit at noon/midnight is “eight”.
Except this is order by DESC, so the ‘lowest’ value (Two) goes on index zero, the second lowest (Twelve) goes on index 1, etc.
But that’s not how clocks work - when the day starts on a normal clock it’s not 1 o’clock straight away, there’s an hour that happens first. The label is at the end of the hour’s segment.
Think about it this way: when a new day begins, where are the clock hands?
I did, the hour hand would be pointing at the (end of the) final hour, which is now eight. The minute hand’s position is a whole different discussion.
The final hour is 8, and it would be pointing at the end of that. I don’t see your problem.
Yeah it should, I am so fucking dumb I even get my deliberate errors wrong. I can’t take it any more!
(I am the OP of the image, the OP of this thread just copied them from a different programmer humor com)
I’m happy to believe it’s intentional - some metahumour (metaprogrammerhumour).
The meme is so nerdy I love it.
I am so mad.
