Did AI design this layout?
My theory: someone has found out how to pry those buttons out and push them back in, and messed with the people using this elevator.
The person who installed this just mapped out their own brain for us.
If you break the code, you can figure out where 1-4 is.
I’d love to know the “why” behind this. It almost looks like floors 28-40 were added afterwards, but you don’t just “add” floors to an elevator like you could stairs.
The other thing would be maybe that there are multiple shafts in the bank but only this specific elevator visits 28-40 and they had to add it in after the fact?
Dunno, it does look like work is being done on the elevator assuming the photo is real. Like the floor is bare and there’s padding material up all around.
Depending on how the boards those buttons connect to are wired this might have just been the best way to do it with less wiring but idk how that stuff actually works and I’m far from an electrical engineer.
Pads usually mean they don’t have a service elevator and are moving stuff between floors or are doing construction, not working on the elevator itself.
CP2
No way it got a sequel
It’s one of the lowest ranking spy agencies, well below CP0 and CP9 which are the most efficient at what they do.
In a sane world which one would you prefer horizontal or vertical layout?
# Horizontal 40 39 38 37 36 35 34 33 32 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 09 08 07 06 CP2 05 # Vertical 40 33 26 19 12 39 32 25 18 11 38 31 24 17 10 37 30 23 16 09 36 29 22 15 08 35 28 21 14 07 34 27 20 13 06 CP2 05Can we have vertical mirrored
# Vertical Mirrored 12 19 26 33 40 11 18 25 32 39 10 17 24 31 38 09 16 23 30 37 08 15 22 29 36 07 14 21 28 35 06 13 20 27 34 05 CP2Horizontal but mirrored, so the numbers go up left to right
Vertical feels more right to me, because elevator go up and numbers too
Boss job done, said like you buttons installed the I.
Looks like this is neither in the US (as there’s a 13th floor) nor anywhere with a large Chinese community (as there are floors ending in 4)
Nah, thats just the Wayside School that doesn’t have a 13th floor.
That’s probably why it fell down.
Believe it or not, it’s not that unusual for buildings in the US to have a 13th floor. While most don’t, I’ve been in plenty that do.
It’s a silly superstition, and in my observation, it faded towards the end of last century. The buildings that I’ve seen that do have a 13th floor have tended to be newer ones.
Omitting the 13th floor is far from universal in the US.
Some buildings do it, but by far not all of them.
There is some method to the madness here. Some.
The right three columns (disregarding the bottom row for now) read left to right, from bottom to top. (I suppose bottom to top makes some sense, as that’s how the floors are arranged in an actual building.) This accounts somewhat neatly for the numbers between 7 and 27
The left two columns do the same thing (except for the 6 button), accounting for numbers between 28 and 40.
All the buttons along the bottom are a complete mess, though. Why is 6 all alone on the far left instead of being next to 7? Or at least in 5’s place? Where the fuck are floors 2, 3, and 4? Is ‘CP2’ one of those?
At least the ground floor button is large and easy to find, so you can get out of this mess easier than you got in. But why are the main grid of buttons separated into separate sets, between the first two columns and the last three? Was the building originally only 27 floors, and then they added more? Without completely redoing the elevator control panel?
There is some method to the madness here. Some.
So, lawful evil it is?
Nah, still to chaotic for that.
They just hate those with poor eyesight don’t they
That’s what the braille is for
Each column is arranged in numerical order, the columns might represent some arbitrary division that makes sense only in terms of the function of the building. The first column might be all the floors which deal with marketing, the second accounting and so on. When you arrange things objects alphabetically camshafts would be next to cameras which without knowledge of the alphabet would make no sense (ACC).
it star trek elevtors had buttons
B7 N30 O24 I11 G
BINGO!!!
what’s the problem exactly?
Beats me. It’s pretty obviously a 5D elevator with each column representing an axis. It’s common sense if you’re familiar with octonions and think of the elevator as a vector with the lobby as the origin. I don’t know how much more clear the designers could have made it.
