I decided to make part of Quest, Ghost Maps. This is basically using cryptographic random to choose between eight directions or a stop function, and it's relatively simple. I just pick 100 numbers from 1 to 100,000 using cryptographic random, and then I add up all of those numbers for each of the directions. I do that three times for each one of them, and then whichever direction gets the highest numerical value as the summation of the three iterations of getting 100 individual values ranging from 1 to 100,000, that highest-value direction gets mapped. Then we go in a loop until the stop command comes up. This generates really interesting results.

I have an input field where you can write what you're looking for, and it kind of works in a spooky way. There's a continue button so you can keep on routing if you feel like it stopped too soon, and it looks at all of the local businesses in the area and gives you information about them. You can click a button and it will take you to Google Maps where you can navigate. There's a light mode and a dark mode, and it ties into the Google Maps API. It's pretty cool, I think. I haven't launched it yet, but I think I may soon.

The idea for Quest is that you have a live-time map of where you are walking—like in a forest or wherever—and you're getting visual directions on a map, at a small resolution like maybe a hundred steps at a time, which I assume I could also map on Google Maps. Then there should be some kind of close-up maps UI that shows which direction the person is supposed to be walking based on the current pathing, and we could use, again, the Google Maps driving API for this.

The good thing about Replit is that I just have to figure out what to do, and then I can tell it and it can do it. I don't have to know how to code any of this stuff—I just have to orchestrate it, which is how technology should work, I think.

But yeah, back to Quest—you would be getting live-time directional updates, and also it would have Spectra built into it so that you could get words or audio. Instead of making it individual words, we could make it strings of words from a dictionary that beings would say, and then simply apply our filtering logic.

An idea comes to my mind: if we're already selecting values for the word generation in Spectra from 1 to 65,000, why do we even need to do the mathematical abstraction for the cosmic score? Well, I guess I do understand why—because we have to make it understandable for the user. But assuming that it was a sliding scale and we just did the number division later, we could just do it in the same way that I'm currently doing the mapping now for Ghost Maps. This would actually order the words better, probably, because the differences between the scores would be much more defined—where one word would never have the same score as another—and we could just order all of them from highest to lowest. I think that could be an update. I may do that later.

So yeah, Quest is basically Spectra plus Ghost Maps, which would be like somebody walking around a forest or something, getting a random direction to go with random instructions—except it's not random. We're just using cryptographic random to hack the inference field and pull out data.

This is a rich blog, so I'll just continue.

I'm also making a QR app that is pretty much just for testing. I'm theorizing that it would be better to tessellate QR codes—maybe perhaps as a 3x3 grid of the exact same QR code—with a 0.5-inch side length, giving us 0.25 in² in area. This is a very small barcode, but readability could be increased by 100%—that's double. And it could be even better in low light situations or other situations where QR codes normally fail.

Right now, you have to hold it for a long time and wait for the code to come in clearly, but what if one of the QR codes comes into focus before one of the other ones, because of the way that the video is focusing in? So you could get the best quality QR code from the little QR code grid, and you wouldn't have to change the QR scanning technology to do it—but it would give you much better functionality, and it's just a software update. I don't know if it's worth any money, but it's probably a contribution to humanity. Lol. I'm making it right now on Replit. I’ll put an example of what I’ve been working on at the bottom of the page. I did some testing and it works consistently with my camera down to 1 in x 1 in square, which is pretty good if it can improve scanability.

Shall I pivot to world news? I'm very happy with peace. However peace can be generated, it's good—because when things are not peaceful, I find it more difficult to focus on my work and to write blogs. So the faster we get to prosperity, the faster I can work on all of my projects, including permaculture robotics that automate the permaculturalization of barren land with AI-driven tractors, drones to measure telemetry and drop seed bombs, and just a few either dog-type robots with an arm on it or humanoid-type robots—if they're good enough. Not right now, I guess. So I suppose a dog form factor would be more robust for now.

The true objective is to create food abundance for everyone, so that food is basically free. Organic, high-quality produce and meat should be so abundant as to completely cause the food manufacturing industries to shift their focus from utilizing artificial ingredients to save money and cut costs, to actually creating the most delicious product that they can—because all of the best ingredients are now infinitely source-able.

That’s the goal: to convert from money-making via cutting corners, to money-making via innovation of your recipes and causing people to enjoy your products. 😀 This is my idea for how to make America healthy again.

Thank you for your consideration. Lol.
