If it makes you feel better I did the same lol

You're missing the lack of logic, aka you're not missing shit, OP has some soul searching to do.
What lack of logic? The numbers on the clock are sorted based on the alphabetical order when they're spelled out in English. Just like with a real clock, the top number is the highest, not the lowest. That seems quite logical to me

Which language provides the most random alphabetically sorted sequence?

Plot with Correlation Scores
We will compute the pearson correlation (r-statistic) score by comparing the base number (column 1) with the corresponding language column. We will also compute the Serial correlation, by creating staggered columns that measure how close a number is in a sequence to the one before it.

It looks like Dutch has the lowest (near 0) correlation to both the base sequence and it's own staggered sequence, with Turkish mirroring it's staggered randomness somewhat.
The least random alphabetic sequences are English and German.
Updated: Added chinese and staggered analysis.
You put a lot of work into this.

I was equally confused initially, but then I looked at the clock in my house and realized that the number up top is the highest number, 12, and not 0. So the first number in the ordering is at the position of the 1 of a normal clock.

I still don't understand how acht=12

Ah no I started at one. You can transpose my list by one and set zeven as 12.

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.

I'd think four times:
4:20, 4:35, 7:20, 7:35 -
Is it a meme or a riddle?
Just a silly joke, I guess.

4:20, 4:35, 7:20, 7:35I'm stupid and read the clock wrong and didn't check even a little.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]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 or whatever c does (strtol?). 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.

If a mechanical clock or watch was like that it would be one hell of a fascinating movement
