This is really cool, even better than the post, IMO (sorry OP!)
One question: when the second hand resets from 60->0, it visually jerks as the triangle moves. After the smooth movement, gradients, the cool multicolour fill, it feels very odd. Any way of smoothing that one out? Animating the flip back to zero? I do understand it's a one-way line not a circle...
The clock in Lord Vetinari’s anteroom didn’t tick right. Sometimes the tick was just a fraction late, sometimes the tock was early. Occasionally, one or the other didn’t happen at all. This wasn’t really noticeable until you’d been in there for five minutes, by which time small but significant parts of the brain were going crazy.
Super Cool, Love it.
I love new clock designs, here is my try https://triclock.franzai.com/
I love your clock btw.

Love the look of that! Really cool
I made an alphabetically-organised clock. I am sorry.
It's fine. Made me think of alphabetical organization, if you could sort an alphabet by any meaningful order rather then, well, alphabetical
This is spectacular. Nice work.
As you should be. I look forward to more of this nonsense.
Great idea! I'd like to make a german version, since the two digit numbers are sorted differently. E.g. 34 is sorted vier(4)_und_dreißig(30).
Thanks, Satan. Please don't give French people any ideas.
Reminds me of Lord Vetinari's Clock:

This is the kind of thing that's completely useless and I absolutely love it. Bookmarked.

Why limit yourself? — make a 24-hour version and you have 86,400 possible times!
Wonder which language's number words produce the most scrambled day. Welsh might win — "un ar bymtheg" (16) is going to cause chaos.
Got me thinking about novel clock designs in digital space - seems like something vibe coding could open the floodgates to :)
That reminded me of the existance of this page! https://clocks.brianmoore.com/
By Ryan Bateman. Name checks out (on multiple levels).
Useless and delightful
Need this irl
Cool stuff!
HATE :-)
The clock is moving very dizzy, lol
