      @dashrender But the three word address system could be synonymous with "I live at .yellow.cloud.google" the same as "I'm at 50th and dodge"

      Just requires an adjustment of familiarity.

      Really? Think about what you just said. You mean a person for the first time and you're going to their place.. and the tell you they live at horse.shoe.staple - why would you have any idea where in the city that is? You've never been there before.

      We would give folks directions, the same as we do now. "Hang a right at green.frog.pocketbook. Then take the third left onto brown.apple.fritter. I'm at horse.shoe.staple -- about 5 minutes down."

      Might as well just use GPS coordinates, that's even easier for humans to use because they increment in expected ways.

      This was my first question when I read the transcript. How does this help anyone just do addressing by GPS coordinates easier to use and already used by every GPS unit in existence.

      Because trying to say im at Lat <#> Minutes <#> Long <#> is impossible for people to remember.

      But by providing a simple 3 word phrase can the Muggles of the world provide a specific location.

            Think of it like this,

            How many people right now can list their exact latitude and longitude ?

            With a system like this, you can simply remember it.

              Every modern messaging app has the ability to pull in your current location. I did this on Saturday to help my brother and sister-in-law get to us when we were in Boston.

                        Off the top of your head give me your exact latitude longitude and minutes.

                          Which, oddly, isn't true. They have no electricity but even tribes in Africa and Australia have cell or sat phones. It's been well documented.

                            @dashrender But the three word address system could be synonymous with "I live at .yellow.cloud.google" the same as "I'm at 50th and dodge"

                            Just requires an adjustment of familiarity.

                            Really? Think about what you just said. You mean a person for the first time and you're going to their place.. and the tell you they live at horse.shoe.staple - why would you have any idea where in the city that is? You've never been there before.

                            We would give folks directions, the same as we do now. "Hang a right at green.frog.pocketbook. Then take the third left onto brown.apple.fritter. I'm at horse.shoe.staple -- about 5 minutes down."

                            Might as well just use GPS coordinates, that's even easier for humans to use because they increment in expected ways.

                            This was my first question when I read the transcript. How does this help anyone just do addressing by GPS coordinates easier to use and already used by every GPS unit in existence.

                            Because trying to say im at Lat <#> Minutes <#> Long <#> is impossible for people to remember.

                            But by providing a simple 3 word phrase can the Muggles of the world provide a specific location.

                            You don't remember, you send via email, facebook, or text.

                            In any case, the means of transportation is way more simple to remember, email, text 3 words than it is to send Latitude Longitude coordinates. . .

                            Every modern messaging app has the ability to pull in your current location. I did this on Saturday to help my brother and sister-in-law get to us when we were in Boston.

                            Modern apps.... third world countries barely have electricity. Much less a phone to send their exact location to emergency responders.

                            Let's try this another way... you have no electronic devices. You are alongside the road and are injured.

                            How will you know the three word code to scream into the air without a digital device to generate it for you?

                            The three word system only works under conditions where you don't need the three word system.

                              I'm done with the conversation.

                              People are just being haters to hate.

                                Which, oddly, isn't true. They have no electricity but even tribes in Africa and Australia have cell or sat phones. It's been well documented.

                                I was working on a project that was created by that fact in central Africa last weekend!

                                  Think of it like this,

                                  How many people right now can list their exact latitude and longitude ?

                                  With a system like this, you can simply remember it.

                                  All of us. that's my point exactly.

                                  Bullshit.

                                  Off the top of your head give me your exact latitude longitude and minutes.

                                  No Cheating.

                                  Why would I want to do that? I have a device I'm typing at and in my pocket that can give me that information at the tap of the screen or click of a button. Why would I want to memorize useless information?

                                            I did actually, long ago. It's not new. But more silly today than when they came up with it.
