Not London Wall related but the London Bloomberg HQ when it was built reconstructed the Temple of Mithras at the actual position, quite deep underground.

This brings to mind the parody of music bio-flics called Walk Hard, which according to Patrick (H) Williams didn’t do so well in the box office, but pretty much skewered the genre. This AI song mirrors that title.

I keep thinking to make a start on a phone app to do this, there’s probably a couple already. Highlighting clove type things that don’t have 120°.

Fascinating. This makes me wonder if there’s a way to set data visualisation to make the most of this for those gifted people. I’m in a minority thinking that perhaps the limiting RGB colour gamut should be made into 4 colours to accommodat

I remember my grandfather telling me if his grandfather’s fondness for the song of the Yellowhammer. A sweet remembrance of someone and a time of 120 or so years earlier.

These articles tend to skip the infrastructure for charging the battery. I’m guessing they’re in turn a large battery that draws a standard current so the ferry can be fast charged. Maybe not as amazing, but a key piece of infrastructure.
