Undecimal supremacy!
Clock but it’s made by an LLM:
What an acid trip of a site. It updated while I was scrolling and legit thought I was having a flashback.
I ran into the same thing - they seem to change (potentially to other outputs from the same model?) when you click on the Question mark and go back.
Question mark says they are updated every minute, even gives you a prompt.
Watching for several minutes, none of then was good except Kimi K2. Sure, not every time, but solid third of them was actually working, while the others scored a perfect 0.
Also, as a Kimi K2 user (because Kagi), I approve. I don’t use Kimi K2 for coding, though, because JetBrains doesn’t offer that, but I use it in Kagi Assistant.
deepseek v3.1 had an (almost) perfect clock once for me.
You know, it looks like clocks drawn by dementia patients
Lol, this both shows how bad most models are… But also how damn good the two big OSS models are, DeepSeek and Kimi.
Amazing
Oh my god. I love that so much.
Now I need to do that but randomize which one is displayed ….
That really is more logical. (Except that the initial element generally goes in the top slot of the clock. Note that 12 is the first hour both of AM and of PM.)
A strictly logical clock for a 24-hour day would have 0 at the top with 1 on the right and 23 on the left. And it would be only ever set to UTC.
UTC has leap seconds. We can do better. PTP/TAI for lyfe.
A perfectly logical clock would use a radio broadcast to count off seconds since a predefined epoch. Put a few of them way up high, so more people can see it, and make them so astonishingly precise that you could tell where you are just by listening.
They should put atomic clocks in the GPS satellites for exactly this purpose.
A strictly logical 24 hour clock would just display the digits tbh.
In binary
I’m not sure I’d argue binary is more or less “logical”. A number is a number.
Look away, I don’t want you to see me cry
This clock starts at both one and at zero!

Imgur have blocked the uk because they don’t want to have to deal with ID shit our government pushed through without properly thinking it through
Ah, I must have forgotten to turn my VPN back on
That’s odd. Here is the URL - https://i.imgur.com/YAGpXPd.png - it’s just straight-up an imgur image. This is literally the first time I am hearing that this can happen to imgur images.:-(
The image is the speechless stick figure meme. Here, I found another source:
That seems not very welcoming to exclude people from viewing such images!
Wait until you learn how months are numbered in some programming languages.
The clever documentation calls it “months since January”.
JavaScript: Hold my Date!
new Date().getYear() == 125JavaScript is in that set of “some” languages. Most of it ties back to C’s
struct tmwhich zero-indexes months (0-11), weekdays (0-6), and the rarely used day of year (0-365), as well as offsetting years by 1900.The odd man out, so to speak, is the date (or “mday” as it’s called there), which is in the range 1-31. One (Perl) book I own suggests that the zero-based ones are used to index arrays of strings and implies this one is different because it generally isn’t used that way.
But anyway, these are decisions made 50 years ago that still haunt us.
And then you added 1, right?
…right?
Not very future proof, what if the “numbers” eventually no longer become numbers?
Well, if we’re saving DB space, why not just use the generate_series function (assuming you’re running PostgreSQL…)?
Hey man, shoulda coulda woulda, was it in the spec?
What’s a little scope creep between friends?
Why limit it to friends? In my company, we do scope creep for everyone!
There’s something to be said for consistency!
Everything’s an entity if you really think about it 😔
