      I'm a big fan of The North East 😉

        I propose Antartica adopt an irrational approach.

        Decide on Antartica North as a basis, clearly this should be Antartica's tentacle where it reaches out trying to touch the South American tentacle. 1 AntArcSpan is thus the rational radius of Antartica.

        Multiply Antartica North by the square root of -1 a.k.a. the number i.

        I propose as international law that real estate/territory claims all have to be solely defined in terms of trignometric functions on Antartica.

        It would also hopefully draw irrationality from other continents, maybe acting as an irrationality sink.

            You can’t have two places named north. Computers can’t handle shit like that.

              They also said computers can't handle dates beyond 1999.

                Just go north, and you'll get to the coast.

                  They were right about that btw. If a fix wasn’t rolled out, we’d probably be living in a different world right now.

                    I asked a researcher on mastodon working at the Amundsen-Scott Station last year about how they manage navigation there and they have their own grid system over there, aligned with the prime meridian.

                      Hmm. Can we go back and not fix it then?

                        Don't tell me this is an opportunity to apply polar coordinates - that'd be far too much of a coincidence.

                        Fortunately down there they should be safe from any polar bearings.

                          To be fair, you can move in any compass direction from any point on Antarctica - except for the south pole

                            So they dont use polar coordinates? That's a shame
