  1. I just realized that the International Organization for Standardization ISO uses a picture from Switzerland to illustrate their popular standards page about ISO8601.
    But do you know where it was taken?

    1 data point: Geospy.com didn't get it - given the image and your accompanying post it said 48°00'00.0"N 37°48'00.0"E

    Obviously I'm a geolocation ignoramous, but I suspect the subreddits r/guessmylocation or r/geoguessr or similar web fora might give it a better go!

  3. Little enigma if somebody wants to try: I bought a cap second hand, and I'm now wondering what the territory drawn in the logo on it might be.

    The cap has been imported in France and I found it in Brussels, but that's all I know. I tried a few things to find out, but so far, no success. Any idea?

    I wonder if it's using bird dialects.

    I don't like that LLMs are being used to geo-guess. Very unsurprising, in hindsight.

    However, I love that Cockney pigeons are theoretically a thing. "Are you using that chewing gum and puke, guvnah?"
