Nerd fact

I love how the sample slots in a folder start at 0!

Everything starts at 0. :+1:

nerd fact2:
if u think of it as an offset in memory allocation its perfectly reasonable.
exists in natural language too, for example age counting: a new born baby is 0 years old. on birth its his 0th birthday.

nerd fact 3: new born babies age aren’t counted in years but in days/weeks/month :wink:

btw on birth it’s Day 1, there is no Day 0 (but there is D-1, D-2 etc…)

i think of birth as 0. and on completion of the first day… 1 day. we pay age forward

comical how such a simple thing that we engage in frequently, can be a little mind boggling - head hurting when you start splitting hairs.

i have had my rytm for 73 days or 74 if you count today. even the date counting calculation wants to exclude the current day from addition.

great thread/comment.
i’m tickled.

In China a child is 1 year at birth… On Chinese new year everybody is a year older… Hence a baby born the day before new year will be 2 years old on his/her second day in life…

i just read this, you might get a kick out of it:

i think it partly explains the why of some of the oddities we experience with midi clock among various devices from time to time haha.

each time elektron comes up with something new, my bank account starts at 0 again. :wink:
