  • 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.








  • I work at an IT company that handles VAERS info.

    Fun fact that I wish had been more widely broadcast during the Pandemic:

    We were 100% sure the Moderna mRNA COVID vax was safe for pregnant women the very first day it was approved for general use.

    How?

    During the initial “first responders only” phase, when only EMTs, doctors, and nurses were getting vaccinated, there were several thousand women who had recently become pregnant but were not yet aware of it. Once they learned of their status, of course they were tracked much more closely.

    So we had a “natural experiment” at a scale far larger than most stage-3 human trials, of how the vaccine affects pregnant women and their babies.

    Executive summary: it prevents the mom and the baby from getting super sick, from having complications, and from death.

    IOW, while RFK is blocking pregnant mothers from getting mRNA vaccines due to health concerns and demanding studies, THE STUDIES HAVE ALREADY BEEN DONE
