@bjelkenstedt @holisticnut33 Yep, 100%. Polygon is rendered into texture rectangle. It has 4 corners at lat/lng. When Y crosses lat=-90, it flips to 90. When X crosses lng=180, it flips to -180. It's this discontinuity which flips and twists the texture. The code doesn't detect this.

@marcin_roma @holisticnut33 I was thinking something like this. Must be the way it calculates. Same thing probably happens at the north pole?

Can someone please tell me why Google Earth gives me this really weird shape when I try to create a parameter around Antarctica??

@swapwarrior @twiittertweeter @holisticnut33 Nah, the implementation has problems. Textures are 2D. The earth is 3D. Wrapping 2D on top of 3D causes issues. The polygon is rendered in 2D into a texture and wrapped onto the earth. The bug you see in the video comes from the wrapping.

@marcin_roma @twiittertweeter @holisticnut33 so you patented the bug? 😋😅 So Google maps is based of the marcator map? not really aerial imagery? Why is it particularly difficult to map this out, versus the north pole, where you can actually do that.

@toyotahunter93 @twiittertweeter @holisticnut33 It’s a surprisingly difficult problem for what seems like a simple thing! It took a very long time to figure out, and it’s busted if it crosses 90 degrees latitude because the Mercator map projection has a singularity there.

@marcin_roma @twiittertweeter @holisticnut33 The fact you dropped a Patent in here is amazing 😂

@FOMOYOLOMOFO @holisticnut33 It showed up top of my feed when I opened X. Why? Dunno. Figured I'd comment. It's like my first X comment in many years. When I worked on Google Earth, the flat earthers would always accuse us of spreading misinformation. It was hilarious.

@marcin_roma @holisticnut33 If anyone believes the person who just so happened to work on the google earth code relevant to the “bug” in the video just so happened to see and reply to this 6 hr old flat earth conspiracy post that has no tags or anything in it and be one of a handful of replies, ur retarded

@deku_dude @twiittertweeter @holisticnut33 20 years later, still making maps. Maps for humans are now solved. We're making maps for self-driving cars. You might ride in one of ours soon. It's a fascinating, difficult and fun problem. The world is chaos. Computers like structure. The combination is challenging.

@marcin_roma @twiittertweeter @holisticnut33 Good job on Google earth dude, what you up to now?

@twiittertweeter @holisticnut33 Yes, I did :) patents.google.com/patent/US86750…

@marcin_roma @holisticnut33 No you didn’t

@WallStreetApes I own a tiny old home in silicon valley. Looking at remodeling. Permit costs will be over $50k. It's insane. I will be required to remove gas heat in favor of heat pump, despite having an existing gas hookup. Gas water heaters must also be replaced with electric.

The state of California is charging residents $30,000 to run gas lines to their homes But it gets worse, for fire rebuilds in places like Pacific Palisades SoCalGas is quoting $53,000 for gas reconnection This is because the California Public Utilities Commission is pushing toward building electrification and strict utility regulations, they don’t want you to use gas For extensions property owners often pay to run new pipe under their streets and driveways. After permits costs frequently exceed $20k–$50k+ Here’s where it gets borderline criminal Since 2023, California eliminated subsidies, like line extension allowances that used to offset costs for gas hookups, putting the full cost to the applicant to discourage gas expansion and encourage all-electric builds

@apostate27832 I see all your screenshots

Interestingly, all the screenshots showing how Xcrement sidelines certain posters here have just ... disappeared!

@GavinNewsom @GavinNewsom, dude, you are so full of it. Our marginal tax rates are the highest in the country, and yes, most people pay less, but we also have the highest gas taxes, highest sales taxes, highest property taxes, and those are regressive.

So who is the high tax state?? Watch.

@WallStreetApes I’m a California voter not registered with any party. This means that I can vote in the primaries of any party which has an open primary in CA, and this is the democrats, the libertarians and the American Independent Party. You have to specifically request one of those ballots.

California Sending Notices To People Saying They Are “Not registered with a qualified political party” 🚨 The Republican Party Is Not Even An Option To Select On The Mailer (Also She Was Removed As A Registered Republican) It Makes You “Choose out of 3 different parties on this form to choose 1 and then send it back” American Independent Party Democratic Party Libertarian Party “Where's the Republican Party? So I called. I called the county, and I spoke with a very sweet gentleman. He stated that if you went to the DMV within the past few years and changed any kind of information and you did not fill out that portion correctly about registering to vote, then you have to reregister as a republican to receive a ballot. I've been registered as a republican since I was 18” On the bottom of the video is proof from the mailer she received Listen to this whole video, the corruption taking place is INSANE

@real_vijay The lack of inflation would constrain governments to spending what they tax, which might mean less government, less war.

What would be the biggest change we would see in a hyperbitcoinized world compared to our fiat world?
