Build rows of diamonds 

I keep trying to keep up...

Some code

Make rows of triangle strips.

Oops!

She played herself.

Write something kewl...

What the heck is going on in this YT story?

Fill a canvas with light brown to match the blog background and a 52 by 52 grid of 10 pixel quads.

Use displacement to move the points in the grid around, then subdivide quads into triangle pairs based on closest diagonal corners.

A Carrington Event followed by an AI takeover?

Yeah, didn't accomplish much this weekend, either...

Something weird, something wonderful...

Rows of quads

Stuff happens...

Build a grid of quads, subdivide into triangle pairs.

points to triangles

Just splat out a point

Oops!

To Home?

Pick a point, do some math, draw a point with the coordinates

The technical details

Fill up points and build triangles and daughter quads or triangles.

Four initial points

Positive and negative points

Yet again, I didn't get anything done this weekend.

I have a page accepting and creating points within a map canvas, calculating a pseudo random number and posting the PR# and coordinates, which is something we keep track of and modify by clicking close to it.

I know we won't settle Mars this century; it will be a permanent scientific outpost, not a colony and will be a ghost town planet generations after we pour billions and even trillions into it. 

We will settle and terraform Antarctica and Greenland as the ice melts, and it will melt rapidly into the 22nd century. We will build dikes to try to save New York City, and I see that eventually we would add on to and replace the sea coast we lose, and fill in the backwaters with freshwater lakes behind the new sea coast

Back to putting a map utility together with persistent, storable features.
