DYMAXION MAP OR GTFO

EDIT: details

It has less distortion of relative size of areas, most notably when compared to the Mercator projection; and less distortion of shapes of areas, notably when compared to the Gall–Peters projection. Other compromise projections attempt a similar trade-off.

More unusually, the Dymaxion map does not have any “right way up”. Fuller argued that in the universe there is no “up” and “down”, or “north” and “south”: only “in” and “out”.[9] Gravitational forces of the stars and planets created “in”, meaning “towards the gravitational center”, and “out”, meaning “away from the gravitational center”. He attributed the north-up-superior/south-down-inferior presentation of most other world maps to cultural bias.

Imagine a timeline where the USA, Mexico, Canada, Europe, and the rest of the world’s democracies that at least try to be diverse, equitable, and inclusionary… were all working together to minimize friction among their liberalized economies and cultures.

We’d be a spacefaring species within a generation or two.

If you call the bottom picture a “Data Lake” you can IPO and walk away with millions

Not just for hiking emergencies.

Many of us in reasonably functioning democracies have had a few decades to forget that sometimes people want to destroy your civilian infrastructure. Far fewer of those people have the capability to disrupt a satellite grid.

Thank you for the proper link and info, and apologies for the confusion.

I am a SciAm supporter and got this in their newsletter. I would have linked but all the URLs in their emails are to a tracker (!$#^%!$) “ctrk.klclick1.com”

As a hiring manager in IT for decades, I learned early: do not hire PhDs

They can write a paper about why the program does not work. They are not willing to sit down roll up their sleeves get intimate with a debugger and make the program work.

NYT did a whole article about it, here have a free one. 86 47! Epstein files!
