Cool to see so much momentum behind this! Anyone have suggestions for the date? Any other big events we should make sure not to overlap with?

from meta.

Day

The io.js logo postulates we choose a date based on the 0100101001010011 binary stream.

We're JavaScripters, so we'll use parseInt to sort this one out.

parseInt('0100101001010011', 2)

The above yields 19027. A year has 365 days and 52 weeks, thus.

19027 / 365 / 52

Resulting in 1.0024762908324552. As JavaScripters, we don't really understand floating point, and Beer.js is a physical meetup group, thus we'll be using .floor as seen below.

Math.floor(1.0024762908324552);

So it shall be the first day of a month.

Month

To pick the month we'll go back to 19027. We must reduce these numbers in a functional fashion in order to make the best of it, and we all know offsetting i by one is a best practice when dividing. Bars usually have a ceiling in addition to flooring, and thus the formula to pick the month becomes:

19027..toString().split('').reduce(function reductor (avg, number, i) {
  return Math.ceil(avg + parseInt(number) / (i + 1));
}, 0);

This results in a 9.

Conclusion

The date should be September 1st.

from meta.

@bevacqua I think we need to double-check that logic. If we take your results and ask javascript:

new Date(2015, 9, 1)

We get October 1.

from meta.

I prefer October 1, it's better to have a beerjs on a thursday than a tuesday.

The Date object has spoken

In Brazil we have the October Fest, basically is a Great Beer Fest!

This date make a lot of sense here =D
