Because an image is a bit to lazy IMHO for "prgrammer" humor. I programmed a clock that actually works. Have fun 🤣

Btw: you can change the order of the clock-face if you want.

Update: Supports arbitrary text now (example roman numerals): https://jsfiddle.net/2o97k6vz/6/

Update: And with Months because why not 🤣 https://jsfiddle.net/2o97k6vz/7/

That's intended. Look at the second hand for a minute. It goes 1, 2, 3, etc. like on a real clock but the numbers are distributed differently. That's also why the hands sometimes have to move faster to reach their target in time. It goes (backwards) if it's closer.
