An aging Geodude…lemmy not gather much moss
A couple things#
I like the INS approach, but couple that with cameras to correct for random walk error (this is much like our eyes correcting for our inner ear.)
I think the issue with Google maps requiring GPS differentials for getting your trajectory has mostly to do with it being agnostic of your phone’s orientation while moving.
I seriously doubt your numbers. Granted, I’m older, but I subscribe to NYT and go there almost daily to read the headlines, a few stories, and a couple games. I hit a few others nearly daily as well for different takes. About 20 years ago, I used Google News, but I switched a long time ago to direct paper access because I didn’t want to be fed only what I want to hear. I want a more holistic news diet.
Just an example, but I’ve worked in central Africa and was recently at a very rural hospital where there was no running water and no electricity (other than local solar), and while there they received an airborne blood delivery via drone from a facility about 100 miles and about 4 hour drive time away. This was extremely helpful and managed through Internet communication.
