@contrasocial @riley They may, but that still doesn’t make the clock correct. Truth can be derived from false premise, logically speaking, ie symbolic, but, and this is the important bit, it does not make the false premise true.
Right, the premise that the clock will be correct when looked at is false regardless of the truth of what time it is. Makes sense.
Mar 12, 2026, 12:49 AM@MissConstrue @contrasocial @riley this is something I harp on frequently. If you're right for the wrong reasons, it's worse than being wrong. You got there by coincidence, but now you believe you know how to get there. That makes you far more dangerous than someone who simply doesn't know.
