250 years military maritime sea clocks
2023 marks the 330th anniversary of John Harrison's birth but also the 250th anniversary since the last bit of Longitude Prize money was awarded by British parliament.
In 1773, 80 years old English clock maker John Harrsion was awarded the final amount of Prize money for his " seawatch n° 1 " H4 clock which solved the Longitude problem.
Harrison had been working half a century to perfect his watches . Note the great details in these paintings, with Harrison holding John Jefferys watch and his own H4 clock on the table besides him.
As Great Britain asserted its position with France and had to avoid these precious time keepers could be caught by Spanish or Dutch navy ships, copies of Harrison H4 were sent on sea trials.
A time of sextants and clocks, while today's rise of technology has isolated us from the natural World, unfortunately much to our detriment.

For a Blue Page
Tonight I am remembering
the Krishna-skin
skies of summer
& the way your laugh
made a Jacaranda tree bloom.
We slept in sheets the color of seaglass &
I woke with the taste of salt
in my mouth.
Happiness is devastating
in the past tense.
I lay these memories, like a fish,
on the cutting board.
Slice them open &
the deepest blue
spills onto this poem.
Natasha Rao, Latitude (Copper Canyon Press, 2021)

The South Shetland Islands, in the same latitude as the southern half of Norway, possess only some lichens, moss, and a little grass; and Lieut. Kendall¹ found the bay, in which he was at anchor, beginning to freeze at a period corresponding with our 8th of September.

It’s also noted that she’ll realize this and immediately lose all professional demeanor and panic for some reason.)
...Sun doesn't feel like procrastinating. She immediately begins to attempt to... call for this new person.

I think Fandom (Wikia) has an explanation problem now
So… I'm not normally one to be obsessed with online privacy like all those hardcore Debian and Pale Moon fanboys are. But I did get pretty stunned when I discovered tonight that Fandom (Wikia) saves and publicly stores very detailed position data that were part of the metadata of photos uploaded to Fandom wikis.
When I say very, I mean very. Depending on the camera model, Fandom shows longitude+latitude seconds with decimals, as well as altitude. With sufficiently bad luck, this means the photos can be tracked to the exact house. Probably not what people who take photos of PC monitors instead of taking actual screenshots had in mind.
This is utterly baffling in more ways than can be counted with numbers.
