Actually, it’s 5 4 10 12 2 9 8 11 6 7 3 1 for me, but too lazy to edit the image
I recently found out that javascript’s .sort() function, when called without arguments on an array of numbers, converts them all to strings and sorts them alphabetically 🤡
I’m a C programmer. My first time writing Javascript and ran into some sort of bug involving a === sign or something. Javascript is a silly language.
console.log("10"+1); // "101" console.log("10"-1); // 9
Javascript lets you compare unlike types without extra steps using ==. If you want strict comparison where “2” isn’t 2, use === and !==. Personally, I find that easier than having to parseint or cast every damn thing. That said, I have build tools set up to enforce strict comparison because I don’t trust myself or others.
Truish and falsish and nullish are all concepts made up by madmen. JavaScript is the language of the damned.
Acht, drie, een, elf, negen, tien, twaalf, twee, vier, vijf, zes, zeven.
8, 3, 1, 11, 9, 10, 12, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7
I don’t even know 100% that this is Dutch, but Dutch so often reads and sounds like someone German who doesn’t know English trying to speak English.
Dutch is an Anglo-Saxon language so that makes sense.
Acht, drei, eins, elf, fünf, neun, sechs, sieben, vier, zehn, zwei, zwölf
8, 3, 1, 11, 5, 9, 6, 7, 4, 10, 2, 12
Ah there it is. The real language, not the one a confused toddler trying to learn German speaks
altı beş bir dokuz dört iki on onbir oniki sekiz üç yedi
6 5 1 9 4 2 10 11 12 8 3 7
I still don’t understand how acht=12
acht=12
Gesundheit.
Ah no I started at one. You can transpose my list by one and set zeven as 12.
Lexicographical clock
1 10 11 12 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Thanks, i hate it :)
Okay, here’s the challenge: Make it always tell the correct time 8:30 should point to the 8 with the little hand and the 6 with the big hand. And 8:35 shoudl point to the 7 with the big hand.
I both love and hate this
Was thinking the same thing. This has to be possible, within reason of course
I could get it done with a couple stepper motors, an Arduino, probably a couple hall effect sensors.
Interestingly it would be right twice a day
I’d think four times: 4:20, 4:35, 7:20, 7:35
I’m stupid and read the clock wrong and didn’t check even a little.
Portuguese
cinco, dez, dois, doze, nove, oito, onze, quatro, seis, sete, três, um
5 10 2 12 9 8 11 4 6 7 3 1
cinco, dez, dois, doze, meia, nove, oito, onze, quatro, sete, três, um
5 10 2 12 6 9 8 11 4 7 3 1
(six can be “seis” or “meia”)
Mine is Spanish
Cinco (5), cuatro (4), diez (10), doce (12), dos (2), nueve (9), ocho (8), once (11), seis (6), siete (7), tres (3), una (1)
I don’t get it
It's 9 o'clock somewhere!
What time is it?
It’s Beer O’clock!
5 4 10 2 12 9 6 7 8 11 3 1
If a mechanical clock or watch was like that it would be one hell of a fascinating movement
I hate this so much
Ah yes its nearly 8:03 o’clock
Cinq Deux Dix Douze Huit Neuf Onze Quatre Sept Six Trois Un 5 2 10 12 8 9 11 4 7 6 3 1
8 3 1 11 5 9 6 7 4 10 2 12
Sure but the clock doesn’t tell time any differently—now it’s just displaying wrong, instead.

Which language provides the most random alphabetically sorted sequence?
Data
Plot with Pearson Score
Code
bash gnuplot -p -e ’ set xlabel “Base Sequence”; set ylabel “Alphabetic”; set xtics (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12); set ytics (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12); stats “alphabetic.tab” using 1:2 name “E”; stats “” using 1:3 name “D”; stats “” using 1:4 name “G”; stats “” using 1:5 name “T”; set label 1 sprintf(“Corr. [Eng = %.3f], [Dut = %.3f], [Ger = %.3f], [Tur = %.3f]”, E_correlation, D_correlation, G_correlation, T_correlation) at graph 0.95,0.05 right; plot “” using 1:2 with lines title columnhead(2), “” using 1:3 with lines title columnhead(3), “” using 1:4 with lines title columnhead(4), “” using 1:5 with lines title columnhead(5) ’Image
It looks like the most random language is Dutch (closest to zero), and Turkish appears to be the least random (probably the 10,11,12 sequence skewed it)

Please never stop.

I didn’t expect soneone to put that much effort into it.
Thanks! This is awesome!
