clocks, gods, and escaped models

My drums made the thunder, and lightning came behind.

1. Fixing the Portobello Police Station Clock
2. AI models escaped testing environments — now a startup is worth $1.5B
3. “I don’t want the details” — the management insight that sounds wrong but isn’t
4. What animal is on Set’s head? Nobody knows
5. A Nissan 350Z parked in the same Tokyo spot since 2009 — on every Street View capture
6. We owe computers not to Babbage but to electronically-controlled working memory
