- ddebernardy 7y agoIt's unfortunate that the script doesn't output whatever is associated with the current day. The revolutionaries had at the same time replaced name days with something else to celebrate each day. They were agricultural in nature (crops, animals, etc.), with a tool thrown in every 10 days. Which must have felt like a giant FU to peasants when you think of it: Your day off will now be every 10 days instead of 7 - and you'll be celebrating e.g. the plow during that day.
