The temp setting in a kitchen refrigerator is a knob with numbers 1 -10It is labeled "Temperature Control"Next to 1 it says "min" Next to 10 it says "max"Which setting will make it the coldest?

@futurebird the answer probably depends on the setting of the freezer knob, because that is classic UI design.

@futurebird *for ancient UI design nerds, yes, this is a reference to a refrigerator knob issue described in Normans _The Design of Everyday Things_ , in which it turned out the refrigerator temp control knob was dependent on the setting of the freezer knob control in the attached freezer, which Norman presented as a design which seemed reasonable to an engineer, but produced dreadfully confusing behavior.
