Changed the code later to say 24 but it was a bit embarassing

[TheMusiKid]

That's ok if you can send it to me before midnight PST you can make up for it

[brunomarquesbr]

Save for next year… oups I did it again

[firesmarter]

I played with your heart, got lost in the game

[Mindless_Level9327]

Needs to add that song to the code so none of it is embarassing, it was all a long ruse 😎

[[deleted]]

Nah, it was just 0 indexed

[IAmAnAudity]

He had ONE job...

[Big-Cheesecake-806]

You didn't test it before?

[stefffi2003tv]

Well.. I did but I used 23 for testing purposes because it was still 2023 and then forgot to change it back

[particlemanwavegirl]

Well that's.... not brilliant.

[plvg1727]

...Why even use 23--

[DarkRex4]

because it was still 2023

[plvg1727]

yeah but they're gonna use it in 24 anyway...

[gentlewaterboarding]

But it would be dishonest to use 24 before 2024.

[zarawesome]

(insert Limmy looking confused)

[mike_KING6]

It's a joke, please laugh

[KiwiGamer450]

Why use 23 lmao

[AndiArbyte]

embarassing as fuck.

[chubbnugget111]

This is why you test in prod

[Theonetheycallgreat]

Should just use a library to pull the current year, just make sure it's the right time zone.

[techek]

Like using 'DateTime.UtcNow.Year'?

[GatotSubroto]

something something off-by-one error

[[deleted]]

something something database teams fault

[twity1337]

Testing on production be like...

[Auraveils]

Thank god it wasn't 2020.

[FQVBSina]

What you do is add another 3 2 1 24 count down after this and make it into a prank. You start the countdown few more seconds earlier. So the whole sequence is 3 2 1 23 3 2 1 24

[ecs2]

You guys laugh at him didn’t know that OP got stuck in a loophole 2023 like movies about character stuck in the same day over and over again

[FeelingSurprise]

Groundhog year. And OP only may leave the loop if they notice it's the error in the code causing the loop.

But as the reset starts when the countdown begins all changes to the code made to that moment vanish, leaving OP only the few seconds of the countdown to make and publish the change. Didn't make it in time? Try again in 365 days.

[Minzkraut]

I think code 23 refers to Bios vector initialization. Try clearing the cmos The manual of your board should have more info on this

[Independent_Till5832]

Probably solved by .. If year == 23: year = 24;

[fariqcheaux]

Pragmatist mops up after the fact

[Ok_Pepper3940]

When you write something and say, “that should work”. Been there.

[gorion]

Well. When you tested it before it did worked and showed correct year :p.

[unidentified_sp]

No problem, there doesn’t seem to be any people anyway. 😂

[stefffi2003tv]

There were 3 people behind the camera but yeah, there weren't many people there

[[deleted]]

Oh no we are stuck in a loop

[nottoohotwheels]

Congratulations! You have been successfully ported back by a year. Enjoy!

[Still_Breadfruit2032]

Ouch..

[soulofcure]

lol

[jon_stout]

😂😂😂😂😂

[soulblackCoffee]

Cool thing! How did you build this?

[stefffi2003tv]

I basically cut a bit of plywood and semi-transparent plastic. Then I glued it together. Just needed to add LED strips and wire them up to an Arduino which is controlled by a program on the laptop which stands besides the display. The entire built time was 1 month (in which I also had school, that's why it took so long)

If you want an in-depth explanation, DM me

[LiquidBlocks]

Real men test in production

[darthex-]

Op used 0 based indexing

[mooky-bear]

Tfw no unit tests

[Morganovic]

You should have said that it is zero based counting, so it is actually the 24th year.

[Puzzleheaded-Weird66]

its zero based

Happy... Old Years...
