I don't know why he has such trouble. You really should only need 1 bit to determine whether or not it's afternoon. Just look at the "afternoon" bit light. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

It's afternoon, time to call it a day!

Coincidentally enough, "noon" is etymologically related to "nine", so 10 is indeed afternoon in a very literal sense.

(Just ignore the fact that it's originally meant to be "the ninth hour after sunrise", so ca. 3pm)
