System for determining the passage of time, comprising a curve element (1) with a concave curve track (10) and a rolling element (40) for performing a rolling movement (41) on the curve track (10), wherein the curve element (1) comprises a setup device (5) with which the curve element (1) can be set up such that two endpoints (11, 12) of the curve track (10) form respective maximum points (13, 14) of the curve of the curve track (10) and a curve area between the endpoints (11, 12) forms a minimum point (17) of the curve of the curve track (10).

In one example, a method for rotating security credentials includes instantiating an execution environment in which to execute instructions of a script. The method also includes executing the instructions of the script within the execution environment to cause the at least one processor to monitor a passage of time to identify an arrival of a time to coordinate a rotation of a security credential between an executable routine and a secrets management service. The at least one processor is also caused, in response to identifying the arrival of the time, perform operations including: providing a first request to the executable routine to communicate with the secrets management service of the processing device to request rotation of the security credential at the secrets management service, and providing a second request to the executable routine to rotate the security credential at the executable routine.

The present invention provides a clock, a method for controlling the clock, and a program that enable a pointer indicating the current time in one display mode to represent a different passage of time in another display mode. [Solution] The clock 1 comprises an upper hand 40, a lower hand 50 that is longer than the upper hand 40, and a control unit 60 that operates the upper hand 40 and the lower hand 50 in a first display mode that shows the current time in hours and minutes, and a second display mode that shows a different time progression than the first display mode. In the second display mode, the lower hand 50 is operated to function as a minute hand, and the upper hand 40 is operated to function as a second hand.
