Journal 793528's Journal: Interesting Slashdot Usernames: The Digits

My last journal entry explored usernames for each single alphabet letter. Now let's take a look at the single digits. First, in numerical order:

And in UID order:

Interesting notes:

  • No users named "4" or "7" (as of this writing).
  • It took longer to get just these 8 digits used up than it did for all 26 letters of the alphabet.
  • Even the first one-digit username came quite late to party, relative to the alphabet. By the time 6 showed up, 22 one-letter users had been created.
  • 1's UID ends in a 1.
  • 3's UID is a multiple of 3.
  • 0's UID does not contain a 0, and 5's UID does not contain a 5. Each of the others UID does contain their digit.
  • 6 is the only one that has posted a comment in the past year (actually 5 days ago, as of this writing), even though it was the first created.
This discussion has been archived. No new comments can be posted.

How many QA engineers does it take to screw in a lightbulb? 3: 1 to screw it in and 2 to say "I told you so" when it doesn't work.
