  • You start a list however you need given the context. It’s arbitrary.

    As an example when doing time calculations in programming, UNIX time is the number of seconds that have passed since January 1st, 1970. If you needed a list ordered most recent to oldest, the highest number would be first.

    To bring it back to you, a 100 is a better numerical grade than a 1. The alphabetical identifiers attached to grades are in reverse order to their numerical counterparts, which is even more fun because the person with the highest number and the earliest letter are considered “best.” However, in some card games (Uno for example) having the lowest number is best when determining score.











  • It’s like if Facebook, Reddit, and Twitter all had the capacity to import content from each other. Then add in that most of the Fediverse’s "facebook, twitter, and reddit"s aren’t run by centralized institutions. You can sign up for an account with any of them, but the administration of the one your account is on gets to decide which other sites content it wants to import. If you don’t like the way the admins are deciding on content in one, you can again start your own or just hop to another one. The Lemmy instances are forum like in nature similar to reddit, Mastodon instances are like twitter.
