alright, I'll bite.
Why?
Because programmers start counting at 0! ๐
Ok, that was funnier in my head...
I'll be the idiot who doesn't get the joke.
I recognize that programmers often start counting at 0.
I'm not sure how this connects to 0 being lonely, since that means it's getting used. Even if the programmers are lonely, I still do not get it. Can someone explain?
"1 is the loneliest number" was a line from an old song, I think.
It was sang by ~~The Beatles~~ Three Dog Night.
You sure? I searched just to check and Three Dog Night came up.
You're correct, Google just returns results for The Beatles because enough people search for that rather than Three Dog night, and I wasn't paying attention
