coding more to machine language

No one claims a 100% accurate map. And I certainly didn’t. So that’s a straw man.

Can you provide a verifiable measurement of curvature of the ground?

are you saying that it's harder to code using machine code than C++ for example

@Lampz I said that the images of the sun and Moon are sometimes distorted by the Earth's atmosphere, which can give the impression that both objects are in the sky when in reality they aren't. This isn't personification, thus is how atmospheric distortion works. Nor was I saying that the sun and Moon are just projections. Good lord.

a flat map is horribly distorted, there's a reason why you need many smaller localized maps.
because the second you try to represent something bigger, it starts being extremely imprecise, you can have a way more accurate map using a globe.

it's not a strawman, flat maps are monstrously distorted

Why does the US geological survey use the AE map then?

They don’t use Mercator.

Who’s arguing maps?

The globe doesn’t have an accurate map. All the land masses are distorted.

That doesn’t prove anything at all.

@Logrian 💯

Talk about reality please.

Not maps. Not theories.

Demonstrate something IN REALITY.

@Ymir just... terrifying explain your sabs

Hm?

because in the US, AE is more accurate than mercator, but i can guaranty you that australia doesn't use the same map

yes, a map is a representation of reality

@Logrian Huh?

@Deleted User You can learn a lot from older people.

Yes

@Ymir just... terrifying What coca cola mentality

I'm not allowed to say.

Or Coca Cola will sacrifice me to the devil.

😱

@Psyclone if you don't believe maps represent reality (to a degree), you're either denying them because they don't fit your narrative or don't understand what they are

A depiction of the earth on paper is by no means necessarily a depiction of reality. No one claims a 100% accurate map. Not globe. Not flat. Where are you getting this from??

Ahhh

‘To a degree’

There we go.

Now you’re getting it.

@Ymir just... terrifying I think you have mental issues 😮 😦

We all do.

So there is no 100% map

I doubt he's getting it

on a globe, the degree of accuracy can be pretty much the same everywhere.
on a flat map, the degree of accuracy gets worse the further away you are from the center

So they’re a dead end for the purposes of this debate.

Why can’t you demonstrate the globe in reality though?

That should be easy.
