I have a wonderful shitpost that this margin is too narrow to contain
Sell it. Used trophies are a novelty item. It’ll then be adopted by an improv troupe, bachelorette party, frat party, small friend group doing an incredulous awards night, ect.

So we may analyze the situation in time steps/differentials, but the simulated agents need not act linearly on that scale. So while we have the baseline time-space tradeoff of the simulator, which can practically be ignored, there’s also the time-space tradeoff being done by the simulated.

Idk if this makes sense with what your doing, but do the simulated agents have a notion of time? What if an agent avoids competition by maximizing it’s usage on spatial resources, then it could reserve it’s drop in the bucket.

I think there’s an inherent problem with the simulation being long-running. In terms of space v. time complexity, you have one formulation with the resources being finite, while in the other resources are essentially limitless. Idk, I think you need to establish reasonable and arbitrary windows.

I wonder if adding more punctures would be beneficial. Most likely not, but I’m not entirely sure why.

Makes sense, stereographic involves only 1 puncture while the majority of map projections involve 2 punctures. 1 puncture is better for going from S^2 to R^2 but 2 punctures is better at encoding the fact that the earth has an axis of revolution.

This feels like they saw the post of the person saying they don’t have the whimsy to play stardew valley and immediately felt the need to refute it.

How so?

Mercator is extremely useful for navigation as it allows for constant straight-line paths with respect to longitude/latitude. A wedge near the pole is expanded inversely with its area to achieve this, but this causes lengths to become infinite (I think the normal crop 3° off iirc).
